Elk,
What's your email address??

This boat has 2 layers of glass on the bottom seperated with a 1/16th inch of foam. This method, unlike LAVRO, will prevent a disaster if you ever do nail a pointed rock.

Also, the floor does not flex like a LAVRO. It is stiff and hard. did i just say that...how about non-flexable.....

Somebody is going to get a deal if they are looking for something light and do not want to take their 3 heavy weight friends along.

SS,

Just a thought but I don't think dissing Lavro's is the best way to sell a glass DB.

2 layers of fiberglass and one layer of foam vs. 21 layers of fiberglass?? Hmm.

Great price. I might be interested. But if that foam ever absorbed water that glass is going to seperate. Has the bottom ever had to be patched? Just curious. One owner?

One owner.
Never needed repairs.

No chalk gun used in the building of this boat. The glass was hand layed over a mold = stronger.

You would never know there is a thin layer of foam between the glass. This is what I was told when I bought the boat.

forgot.

21 layers vs 2?

I don't know how many SHEETS of glass were used per LAYER, but I know there is more than 2 SHEETS of glass.

The boat bottom is not fiberglass corrugated roofing????

O-fish-oly SOLD.

Have fun guys. Use the small anchor on the first run. The big anchor is too much work.
