RE: reinforcing plastic for combat
Exactly. I already plan on cutting out penetrable windows, that I will sheet over with 1/16" soft balsa wood as my club allows. My question is what I should use to reinforce the plastic parts: the ribs, keel, and impenetrable bow and stern. What weight of fiberglass would you recommend? It's a small boat so heavy cloth might not fit very well, but too lightweight cloth might not be strong enough.
