Re: Faster Prop for V-King

Re: Hydrostream VISA

Re: Need new HST cover
I have a universal cover on my boat and my kids. His fits good being a smaller boat (Hydrostream Vixen), but my vulture, not so much. The boat being 20 feet, any universal cover is so big/baggy on it as these boats are such shallow boats. I would never tow with mine on there. My kids I might but his...

Re: Recore question
I'll be honest, I dont remember how I did my Vulture. Its been like 8 years since I redid it. Sadly it still hasnt hit the water. This year though. I think we wet the hull real good and wet the back side of the core real good and laid it down. Could maybe use some thickened resin or corebond to elim...

Re: Recore question
Thats a lot of unnecessary materials. 1708 core 1708 csm (optional) hull Thats all ya need. Use some corebond or cabosil with the resin to make putty to smooth out any sharp edges so the fiberglass lays as smooth and flat as possible to avoid any possible air bubbles/pockets. Like here when I did my...

Re: Recore question
When I did mine, I did a layer of 1.5 oz CSM on the hull, then a layer of 1708, then the core, then a layer of 1708 over the core. Unless you really ground down the hull, no need for all that. Cant say I have heard of Isophthalic resin myself. Everyone typically uses Poly or Epoxy resin.
