    I have read a lot of comments from a lot of your videos over the years and it is amazing how people highlight how easy you make your work look, unfortunately in reality it's not easy, of course you years of experience helps a lot but a key component of your success is preparation, I bet that you can fill a 1 hour video prepping for a 15 min application, it is just that unforgiving and unfair. Kudos to professionals like you guys that bring the real deal without fairytales to the eyes of the DIYers community. Let's go fishing 🎣!

      I appreciate what you are saying about good prep and how important it is to a job going smoothly! We may spend the better part of the day preparing for a 45-minute video, and when all eyes are on you, there is very little room for mistakes or hiccups! But folks at home can see how we lay out and plan the work beforehand. It is SO important! Thanks so much for watching and commenting on the videos,
      It means a lot to us!

    Your depth of knowledge and experience and your ability to relate so much information clearly and concisely never cease to amaze me. You're a natural teacher; even though your videos tend to run a little long they always seem short because you're able to make them so interesting. Keep up the great work!

      Wow, thank you so much! I'm glad you are enjoying the longer videos. I know many people are used to much shorter, and highly edited videos on TH-cam, but I feel like it's hard to get a true sense of what the work really involves. I hope the channel will help inspire people to get out there and build or repair something they can be proud of!

      Thanks for the content suggestion! I have a very in-depth series of videos showing how I built from scratch a custom hardtop for our 29 ft center console. From building the pattern to the mold, then the actual hardtop. I think a lot of what I did in that video might be interesting to you. It is in a Playlist here on the channel, or you can just scroll back and find it. I hope this helps, and thanks for watching!

    Good job Joe and Logan, it is satisfying when all the fiberglass lays down so well seeing it contour to all the curves looking solid. I am going to try to take some pictures of my boat so you can see what l am going to try to fix on my boat. l hope it will not be to much of a task and get her in the water next year.👍

    One sugestion for other video: how much last every sand paper in the machines depending on the grind, 80, 120, 400... When do you change them and when is the best moment. Also how long we need to exchange filters on ours mask or respirator. Thanks much, keep going!

    Captain Joe, as with every single one of your videos this was *incredibly* useful! Coosa seems to be almost unheard of over here though I have found and emailed the sole distributor for UK & Ireland so I’m hoping they’ll reply and let me know where I can get some. Meanwhile, if you do ever take a trip this side of the pond, do please come and enjoy some time on our canals, drop me a note!

    • @FishBumpTV
      @FishBumpTV  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Fantastic, I'm glad the video was helpful! There is another material that is supposed to be very much like Coosa board, but I have never personally used it. It's called Thermolite, and my understanding is that it may be more common on your side of the pond. There are many different core materials out there, but just remember that transom cores need to be of a higher density. Usually, 25 to 32 pounds, most conventional cores are 5 to 7 pound density. Of course, a quality marine exterior plywood that is properly installed will last decades, so don't be discouraged if you can't find Coosa or something similar. I hope this helps,and I wish you all the best with your transom replacement! PS I'm sure I would enjoy boating in your part of the world, maybe one of these days!

    • @CruisingTheCut
      @CruisingTheCut หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@FishBumpTV Thanks again. I'll look for that other board but think it may end up being marine ply. Loads of people keep telling me to use foam core apparently not understanding it needs to be much more solid in the transom.

    • @FishBumpTV
      @FishBumpTV  หลายเดือนก่อน

      @CruisingTheCut Nothing is wrong with marine plywood if it is properly installed. Please feel free to let me know if I can be of any assistance with your project.

      I'm sure your core install will still be just fine, the vent holes are a way to help know that 100 percent of the core has bonded, and give you a little more confidence in the job. I'm always trying to help add simple tips into the videos to help you all at home get Pro level results! Thanks so much for watching and commenting, I truly appreciate it!

    1) What strength of adhesion does the vinyl ester bonding putty you made & used have ? 2) Does the strength compare to a Loctite PL Marine Fast Cure Adhesive Sealant, for example? (ignoring the poly compatibility issue, my question is strictly about adhesion.). 3) If that coosa was not fiberglassed in, would the coosa stay in place & endure marine vibration & hole penetration for electronics to be mounted? Just curious, I'm not looking to cheat the necessary steps for the purpose you are demonstration. TY- love your videos, I have learned so much.

    Just joined.. Incredible job!.. Im not sure if you have covered this subject since I'm new, but am wondering if you've ever replaced a rotted plywood floor with a wafferboard product in a boat, or have reinvented an old wooden engine cover with a fiberglass one? I have a 78' Double Eagle that has these problems.

      Fantastic, welcome to the channel! I have installed a Coosa board core in our 29ft hybrid bay in our boat build series of videos that you might find interesting.

    • @FishBumpTV
      @FishBumpTV  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Sure, and putty like that could work for bonding in a transom. Especially if you use vinyl ester resin, as it is stronger, and bonds better than polyester resin. Thanks for watching!

  • @charlescamen5225
    @charlescamen5225 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    great work on the coosa lamination.
    could you explain the best practice to have inserted the coosa board. is it better to have installed it as you did with a gap around the edges to the sides or would it be better to have extended the coosa board to the edges of sides of the recess?
    My view is that it would have been stronger to extend the coosa to the sides but I don't know if this would have caused any issues?

    • @FishBumpTV
      @FishBumpTV  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks, glad you enjoyed the video! I reinstalled the coosa at exactly the same place and dimension as the original core. There was no evidence that not running the core to the edges was a problem in the original, but obviously the wood did get water in it and gave out. The coosa is rot proof, and as strong if not stronger than wood. Then, I used vinyl ester resin and more glass than the original, so I'm sure it's stronger than before. But you could run it to the edges if you wanted to. I ran it to the edges on our 29, and I used 3/4 coosa. That's the great thing about working with these materials, you do have options. You certainly don't have to do it the way I did if you don't want to, or if it looks good to you,then do it exactly the way I did. Every job is different, and there are almost always several different ways to get a good result. I hope this helps and thanks for watching!

    8 oz is a cup, 16 oz is a pint which is the amount of beer that should be in your glass at the pub though modern bottles are 12oz so if it didn't come from a barrel or you are in a metric pub then all bets are off and maybe you got 3/4 of the expected beer. A quart is 32 oz or 2 pints so 1/2 a quart is a pint. No clue what that is in say cubic centimeters but I am sure there is a calculator out there for liquid ounces to some metric thing. Most of my liquid measuring devices have the different values on different sides so I just use the right scale or ratio.

    Working on a 19' Ski Barge (early kenner). Needs stringers, transom, and floor. Currently have the transom core removed from the inside of the boat. Waiting patiently for you to get to the t transom on this one. Can I get away with using all polyester on these repairs? Having to use marine ply, due to know place to source reasonable coosa in my area.

    • @FishBumpTV
      @FishBumpTV  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That's cool! I haven't seen a ski barge in a while! I'm a big fan of Kenner boats, I ran a 23v in my charter business for years. You could use polyester, but I would recommend using a high-quality iso polyester if you do.The vinyl ester is going to be slightly more expensive, but is considerably better at bonding and waterproofing. Surface prep is very important with plywood. My how to fiberglass over plywood video will have some good tips and tricks in there for you. I will be starting the transom replacement very soon, so stay tuned, and thanks for watching!

    Have a question about webbing.
    Going to re-gel coat my deck and two colors of webbing.
    Going to use a gravity fed paint gun. Gel coat and webbing solution I think I have that figured out. Does it matter what size tip the paint gun has. The one I planned on buying has a 0.8mm tip from harbor freight. Amazon has a gun with multiple tips 1-2 mm. Any info on size of tip would be appreciated. Is a bigger tip better for spraying webbing on the deck? Thanks for any info.

    • @FishBumpTV
      @FishBumpTV  หลายเดือนก่อน

      0.8 mm is very small for gelcoat. A 1.5 to 2.0 is pretty common for small gelcoat jobs and splatter finish. 3.0 to 4.8 is available from a company called the Gelcoater. They make paint guns specifically made for gelcoat and at a very reasonable price. Be sure to tell them you heard about their spray guns on Fish bump tv. I hope this helps, and thanks for watching!

      @FishBumpTV  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, I already had the 1/2 inch Coosa. I personally wouldn't recommend going thinner than 1/2 for this application. I put 3/4 coosa in the console of our 29, just to be extra tough. I hope this helps and thanks for watching!
