depending on how fancy you want it, you dont "have" to epoxy or fiberglass a foam boat. I have about $30 tied up in mine, thats with pre existing radio/engine equipment. although most of that cost includes fiberglass and epoxy resin. Some guys are using coroplast (corogated cardboard) that they got for FREE! ask your local gas station for thier old signs, they will usually give them away. Below are a couple pics of my mostly completed boat. just finisihed it, but i aint got pics yet.
