Hi all enthusists

Cool jet thing vid.... saw a sick rail turnfrom 1.30 then a hot ass...stillwondering what ultimate ride the vid is describing but no doubt they are both expensive lol.....oops

Stud wise i re-checked out the mixing tube epoxys and apart from the sika type for nearly $20 the rest are low strength.... so gunna check out my local vet for a syringe.... might tell em i need it for bear anti-depressant as i'm finding it hard to catch a fish... then again might just tell em the truth and after they laugh lots might feel sorry for me and sell em to me cheap.... lol

hey dread and curls i hear your points but now thinkin even if the the stud is threaded with a head, its still relying on the epoxy gripping the foam otherwise is just a bigger epoxied stud pullin out.... !.... ?.... and yes maybe the injection of good epoxy into high density foam could be key point......
BUT puttin another layer of glass where the studs will be pullin through might be a good idea before i build any furthar.

Just sayin but reckon next bigger board i make will have a maui deck and a bead seal.... atm i can't fiberglass to save myself so makin a plywood deck rim varnished and eventually glued on.... yeh heaps extra time to make but being plywood may even give some more longitudinal rigidity for the hull as well as all the other good points a force barrier should acheive.

and as usual all is lookin good lookin outsidethe cave into ******** land..... bear</p>
