Best builder series out there! Except for maybe "life on the hulls" ahoy

Hi Ross I'm trying to make my own kayak and have followed your series to a T. I'm really tired at this point and would like the past two years of my life back. I'm half way done. Please pray for my soul and my wife, to keep me. Thanks again mate for sharing. Cant wait to see you sail the catamaran! On the other channel cheers!

Wll done Mate - An Aussie that I can understand the basics- thanks

Thanks a lot for these videos too, they really helped kick off my composite kayak journey!

Great Advice! Also; during the final cleaning, I spray into a torn-off section of an old towel so the acetone doesn't fly back into my face. Then; you can use the towel to clean the gun because it's already soaked with acetone. Thanks for the video! Scotty

Why don't you guys specify the CFM requirements?

loving these videos! Amazing shop set up, and great info. I'm in the thick of it with a 18 foot motor boat at the moment so much work. Cant imagine what your schedule looks like with your rig

You are a fountain of knowledge and have a way of sharing it. When you say something you also give us the 'why' behind it. Much easier to understand and remember so we dont make the same mistakes. Not interested in kayak making yet but I get so much tips on wet laminating. Thanks!

How much weight can these little kayaks hold? Gotta strong feeling I'd sink in that little thing. Looks fun as hell though.

This video was insanely helpful, thank you!

Hi ! How are you today, My Name is Mr.Herman Woods. I have to RC BOATS ! I WAS WATCHING YOUR VIDEO. AND I SAW YOUR GELCOT GUN SPRAYER . I SAW A GUN LIKE THAT ! , BUT I THINK IT IS A DIFFERENT MODEL .

Great video man lots of valuable information I have a few question for you. Did you used Gel Coat with Paraffin?and how many coats? When should the one without Paraffin be used and how many coats before giving the one with Paraffin? Where do you buy spray gel coat?

Love the series. Just about to re-seam my first boat which has needed some repairs. Following your videos as a guide! Using a polyester gel and flowcoat, how long between finishing coating the flowcoat and removing the masking tape do you wait? Thanks!

Thanks lots of good tips for a newbie like me trying to do a one of project for a sailboat bimini 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⛵

what do you make you mold stiffeners out of?

Classic man, is what you are. Cheers!

It is a dark art, people ask me about it and just don't understand.

Great vid, thanks! What are the part numbers of the 3m filters that you are using on the protection mask?

Excellent skills and tips with lots of detail. How would you join a hull and deck that has no internal access such as a surfski?

waste of time and didnt save any weight using carbon over chop ang glass roving especially with all that poly resin carbon only provided looks

Hi Ross, I met Ron at Balmain when you were first making these. Forgot the name of his boat until now and realized I had seen it appear on my AIS. It is currently at Townsville and I am at Magnetic Island. I'll keep an eye out for him. Small world.

❤ good coat of anti slip 🎉

Rossco, I thought you gave up on this channel, I was surprised to see a new vid, great job as usual.

very nice work mate. All the best.

Thanks a bunch for this video it helped me figure out how to fix my loose kayak coaming on an old fiberglass kayak. Went super smooth making the u shaped channel and then back filling with thickened epoxy. Love all your videos and thanks again!

All good tips Rossco, your fingers are the best gauge for finding a smooth radius....

Cheers Rossco

Thanks Mr. Good night, i have one doubt: this is possible apply gel coat with gun in external Surface ( ex. Sail boat) ? Thanks best regards. Renato from Brazil.

Get the 3M pps system.Throw away the liner and clean out the gun in a fraction of the time with 1/10 of the solvent.

Great video, thankyou!

Hi Ross, can I ask what material/layup schedule you would use to make a mould? Thanks.

I really enjoyed the series, and learned a lot - plus lots of great tips!

Hi Ross, can you tell me whether you have to laminate the same day as applying the gelcoat (whilst still tacky), or could the laminating be done at another time? Thanks.

Mofiac is the name of the guy that does the gun cleaning video

Great videos! I logged in just to leave some likes and a comment. I'll check out the catamaran project tomorrow. Cheers!

Ross. Just wanted to say thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience online. I’m constantly referring back to your videos as I continue on my composite journey. Your an absolute ledgend mate 👍🏻

What material is that mold you got out of storage made of?

As someone who is considering building a carbon boat, the information and techniques you provide are incredibly valuable. Thank you
