A vast majority of the several million boats built in America in the past twenty years are fiber glass. In recent years the technology for such construction has been changing rapidly. New fabrics, new resins, new reinforcing fibers, new layup and molding techniques have been developing. This book explains in a manner understandable to the intelligent boat owner, or would-be owner, the range of technology used to build fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) boats. It reviews the materials of construction, from resins and reinforcements to sealants and adhesives, showing how these materials are assembled to create a boat and how interiors are installed. Finally, the problems and techniques of maintenance and repair are presented in complete and easy-to-follow terms. This is a book for any owner of fiber glass boats who wants to understand, maintain, and repair his boat. Contents in Twelve Chapters: The Fiber Glass Evolution, Resins and Reinforcement, The Basic FRP Hull, Composite Construction Custom Hulls, Interior Components, The Deck and Cabin House, Marine Sealants, The Finished Boat, Maintenance, Repairs with FRP, and A Look Ahead.
