One of the best parts of our job is seeing the many projects our customers bring to life with our products. We love getting updates, and this one from our talented customer, Jess, needed to be shared. What began as a simple motor job on his boat quickly turned into a major restoration project, and the progress is impressive.

Jess discovered that the job was much bigger than he initially thought, leading him to replace three-quarters of the boat's stringers. For those who aren't familiar, stringers are the crucial structural ribs of a boat's hull. Replacing them is a massive undertaking that requires skill, patience, and the right materials.

  • Vinyl Ester Resin: Chosen for its superior strength, water resistance, and durability—making it an excellent choice for marine applications.
  • 1708 Knitted Fiberglass Cloth: A strong and versatile biaxial cloth that adds significant structural integrity.
  • Fumed Silica: Used as a thickening agent to create a strong, non-sagging putty for bonding and filling gaps.
  • Seeing the dedication and craftsmanship that go into these restorations is always inspiring. It’s a great reminder of the passion within the boating community.

    Progress on the Water

    Check out these photos Jess sent us. You can see the detailed work involved in rebuilding the boat’s core structure. It’s projects like these that get us excited—knowing our materials are helping bring a vessel back to its former glory and getting it ready for new adventures on the water.

    Setting Sail for New Adventures
