Just an idea for the next time your joining anything, stagger the joints it will add a lot more strength- so you would have 1 long piece on the front left and 1 long piece on the back right, then the 2 shorter pieces on opposite corners. I know the foam isn’t for strength but will even keep the whole piece straighter and help when moving it around 👍🏼
Angry Mack, I’m starting my boat rebuild in the next couple of months! Where did you get the foam board from! Can’t seem to find anyone who supplies the Coosa type boards
hey buddy! I got from resin supplies in Perth WA but it was the last of it as warehouse burnt down.. thanks for watching, hope you enjoy the process :)
@@AngryMackAdventures really? So something similar to a Dyvinicel or is it totally different.. I see it has a little flex to it. No problem with resin?
Plywood/marine plywood/coosa/foam. Stringer material not selected for strength. Foam easiest to shape. Cost effective, readily available, # layers of glass vs the other 3, weight?
Thanks for watching Roland, Foam is more expensive to buy a sheet then is was to buy ply. But yes easy to shape. Weight is a factor also 100%. back when this boat was built the wood stringers were used for the strength, that's why not are roted out as it was only layered with 1/2 layers of chop to seal
Like the work but boat building 101 you can use a level of any sort lasers can be used if locked as the floor once finished looks like it will dip forward in the water as it's not back in its original place from the factory
Hey Thomas thanks for watching, I have allowed for this is the floor I have 5mm lift in the front to have the water towards the back! Thanks for the response!
Good to see ya supervisor is still lurking in the back ground haha, good stuff as always mack” n chi chi”

What kinda foam mate ?
9:20 I was that guy about to ask. Haha.. very cool mate, makes sense. Thanks 🤙
No problem 👍 thanks for watching mate :)
Great work. I think I will go with foam stringers on my next build as well. It is always worth trying new ideas.
Thanks Dan, def an option! thanks for watching :)
Welcome back Mr Mack been hanging mate
haha thanks mate!!
Angry is back.....hope you had a good trip mate
Thanks mate was awesome, back up fishing in 4 weeks 😬
Awesome work mate! what foam is that? I have a 17 foot haines I want to do.
I'm restoring a camero ski boat at the moment and finding your videos very helpful. Regards from North Queensland
thanks mate, appreciate it :)
I like the idea of measuring stringers awesome work 👏🏽

thanks for that mate!
Hey mate great job. Just a quick question how do you set up the boat on the floor so it does not go out of shape?
I wonder the same thing.

Composites warehouse in O’Connor (WA) has all that sort of stuff too.
Why you didn't staggered the 2 peices of stringers
Great work, could you please share what laser level you are using?
Good idea with the laser level I might steal that idea lol
Hey, what material are you using for stringers
hey mate, Foam and fiberglass, on the next episode of the build i go into detail on the stringers :)
Where are you buying the 1708? Nice work
Hey Tim I have a Shipwright buying direct for me.
Mate a question. What foam are this? What the name? I'm also restoring my boat totally like you...
Hey mate, high density poly foam :)
Did level boat before shooting your laser?
sure did, you have too :)
@@AngryMackAdventures any tips on how to level the boat?
What type of foam is it and was there any reaction to the resin and did it such up any or much resin
Polyurethane mate, nope no reaction, and not much at all :)
Great vid bro thanks. What kind of foam board is that?
Hey Tony, 50mm Polyurethane

back when this boat was built the wood stringers were used for the strength, that's why not are roted out as it was only layered with 1/2 layers of chop to seal
Easiest to shape= foam, cheapest= ply, strongest/easiest install= thermolite/coosa.
