Hey guys new to forum here, been reading for quiet a while and goin to jump into deck,transom, and stringer project. Free boat with 1973 65hp Evinrude on back motor runs glass hull in good shape but stringer and deck rotten right out. I plan on using plywood for stringers and sealin them in with resin and glass. My question is how moch resin and mat you think it will take to do 4 stringers in1971 Marquis(cant really find any info on hull specs online if anybody would happen to know somin about hull i really would appreciate all the info I can find) 15ft. bowrider. Gonna be using a polyester resin just not economically right to do epoxy atm. I've read alot of info bout what types of colth to use just hoping to get an idea on the quanity involved from someone with a lil expierance. Thanx guys. I'll have some pics up here soon as I pull them off camera.

Re: Resin quanitys for stringers

check in the "how tos and other info at the top of this forum, it gives general info on how much resin each type of cloth and mat uses. i have found it very useful and informative, refer to it frequently actually.
hope this helps, D

Agree with osborn159.
I just started my 87 Sea Ray rebuild. This is my first major rebuild (basically a newbe) and that post he refers to has yielded me tons of info and insight. read it all the time. just take it slow and read each section. lot's of great help right there
