Making a fibreglass rowing boat hull at home from a boat mould

- This is how we made a fibreglass rowing boat hull from a boat mould.
In the next video we'll show how to take the hull and turn it into a full rowing boat.
The mould release product link is here: amzn.to/32VK1dN
We only used 2 x coats and the hull came out easily.
In fairness the mould had been used by a previous owner, but it's easy to apply and goes for miles.

Beautiful looking boat hull
Beautiful boat my friend. Great job. Greetings from borneo 👍👍👍👍🤗🤗🤗
Nice boat thank you for sharing this video.
I love watching videos like this. My first boat was basically built in a 2 car garage.
I like watching video like this to
where did you get the mold? How much did you pay for it?

Cracking job.
Well done sir.
It a great project that I like to make the wooden boats job.
Отличная работа! 👍
I like watching video like this one
I want to thank you for making this video. It is very educative and you explained everything very nicely.
I used your video to make a make a scientific paper about this type of boat hulls, comparing this hand-laying technique and 3D printing of glass fiber reinforced plastics. You have done an amazing job, keep up the good work!
Ohh wow!! Where is your video so we can learn even more in detail?
Wonderful video ! Suuuupperb !! Thanks from Kerala, India !!!!!
I really appreciate your video I love it so much watching from Cavite city Philippines thanks for sharing this video Sir thanks Godbless you always
whatever
So great to see like this...
Thanks mate…..by god your fast!!!
Makes me really appreciate the guy who sold me his small skiff for $100.
Nice video my friend...Watching from province of cebu Phil.
Fantastic thank you
so usefull. Thanks
Excellent👍👍👍
Thanks for sharing sir.
That's beautiful!
nice bro, I like your video👍
Awesome. Congrats 🎉❤
very creative, love this.
very good
Good job bro 👍👍👍👍🇱🇰🇱🇰
Thank you so much 😀
Excellent video.
Well done! I was waiting to see how the inside looked though.👍
I've bought more gel coat to mix up as a 'flow coat' which should provide a nice smooth finish.
I also still need to kit it out with either a couple of benches or some luxurious seating (got an idea here).
I'm making another video for that.

Foarte frumos 😚😀😆😁
Hi Danny, great video 👏🏻👍🏻
AMAZINGNES!!!
i believe the fiber glass boat is so much durable in the long time run...
Wonderful ❤
Perfect
Beautiful
Good
wonderfull
Hi Danny,
it's the best of all vedio on boat ⛵ construction. Pivoting arrangements are great. My boat is in design stage. It would be a 22 ft. Long. Will be powered by 300HP V6 engine. Calculating (and adding) all strength, stability and rigidity aspects.
Any advice from you will be highly appreciated. Have already subscribed your channel.
Thanks.

i gotta hand it to ya bro , that was epic
Estou querendo fazer um, usando meu barco de alumínio 👍
the best
Really nice boat,, how much cost you spend for one boat. And how many days to make that boat.
nice job! But what a cliffhanger! Does it float?
Haha! Good question! Don't miss the upcoming 'sea trials' video.

How many times can you use the mold before it needs to be replaced?
Thank you very much ❤
How thick is it in the end? Approximately
How did you make a deck?
Where to get such a mold, how much would it cost used +-?
Mr.how many layer fibe r glass that you and your team use.great video
Hi, that was 1x gel coat then 1 x 300gsm chopped mat, 1 x 450gsm chopped mat, 1 x 300g roving and finally another 450gsm chopped mat.
In a video I'm working on you'll get to see the hull turned into a kitted out boat where I plan to flow coat the inside for a nice luxurious finish (as opposed to just painting it).

Danny, did you ever manage the follow up post to this one? I have made the hull and it seems ok but I'm a bit stuck on what now? Thanks, brilliant video.
Hi Mark,
I've installed seats in the stern and middle and created a little anchor locker. I've also made a top deck which I decided not to use because I'm going to install steam bent gunnels. I've got some footage but nothing I can upload yet. Slow progress due to moving house and a change of setup. Would be happy to tell you more about my progress and ideas should you like?
I also took it for a premature maiden voyage, which went well! 🙂
@@dannynorcott Thanks Danny. I'd be really interested to see your middle seat and how it's fixed. And the plate that fixes the rowlocks. Glad your launch went well, I'm hoping to be afloat in mine soon. I have the river at the bottom of my garden, so tempting. Thanks again.
I'm guessing 3 - 4 gallons of epoxy, plus matting and roving .... and 18 hours and as yet unfinished. If this were a commercial venture I'd say you were already into cost overruns... nice looking boat so far, and I'm waiting (tappity tappity tappity) --- and subscribed to see how you finish it.
how would you propose to make it faster? How much man hours you would say this should take to be a good commercial venture?
How much does this hull weights? Nicely done!
👍👍👍
This came out great, where or how did you come across the mold? I’m looking to possibly do this for a drift boat here in the states. Thx
EBay :-)
But I'll be looking to sell my one when I get around to it if you can collect from Norfolk UK (long shot lol)
Hi Danny, did East coast give you the spec for tjhe laying or did you make it your own, I have used EC and are a great team , well done, look forward to your next video.
Hi Bill,
They did indeed provide me with the advice. Thanks for your interest and compliments :-)
why did you cut the chopped strand into narrow strips? when you had done the previous layers as large sheets ?
Just trying to find an efficient way of laying it on without creating large air bubbles which can happen if it doesn't lay flat. Should this happen, then you end up with weaknesses. You can see me grinding/ cutting some out In between my layers so that I can regain proper lamination in those areas.
Do you have a video on how you made the top deck and how you glued them together? Fixing to build my own and still need to figure that out
Hi,
I had a laptop failure and I've temporarily lost access to some of my videos.
I made the top deck in essentially the same way: gel coat then matting. The plan was to lay it on the hull then wet some mat and join them together from within. This would be work exactly the same way as if you were joining the deck and hull together with sticky tape from within the boat if that makes sense? This is exactly the technique that had been used on a 12ft speedboat that I used to own.
My plans no longer use the top deck as I've decided to go with a more traditional bent-wood gunnel approach.
One more thought on joining the top deck if it helps you with your project though is that you could always glass in some strip wood around the top of the hull and then counter-sink screw the top deck into that for strength. For belt and braces you could then glass from within as described above as well. I've seen this approach used before.
Good luck,
Danny
Dear sir It really a nice. What are the Dimensions. ?
Thanks for your interest. It's about 12' x 5'6". I was filming the fibreglassing of the seats today so please consider subscribing to make sure you don't miss the next video!

إفولكي لخيران أيسخر ربي
nice to see you guys, thanks for sharing. One question, where I can buy the mold? or can you share how to create this mold? thanks
Hi, I found it on Ebay, but there weren't many. It's a commercial grade mould hence I could make the timber frame which allows it to rotate. I'm thinking about selling it in the near future as we're hoping to move house. I'm based in Norfolk, UK. If that's any use to you, please message me.
Danny
@@dannynorcott unfortunately I am based on Indonesia so I think the shipping cost would be same as the mold price 🙏 but thanks for the information and great video 👍 will be nice to see your boat on the water 😀
@@drafdev1480 lol. Thank you. Indeed I plan on making a video of the boat on the water both under engine power and being rowed. Just waiting for some better weather...
@@dannynorcott nice, can't wait 😀
Como eu faço pra conseguir os planos dw construção pra eu fazer um barco desse com meu pai?
Embora não seja o que eu fiz - pesquisar online por "Planos de construção de barcos" traz alguns projetos interessantes.
Se você puder encontrar um molde à venda, você sempre pode tentar copiar o que fiz em meu vídeo :-)
Espero que o Google Translate tenha feito um bom trabalho ...
Obrigado pelo seu interesse....
@@dannynorcott traduziu bem! Rsrs.
Amigo!
Já procurei mais não encontrei não.
Queria um no estilo do seu.
Fine! How long to have it done?
Hi, it probably represents about 18 hours of work which we spread over about 6 days. Thanks for your interest :-) Please subscribe to my channel if you'd like to see the follow up video that will turn this hull into a full boat.
Fantastic job! How thick was the final hull?
It's hard to say because some areas are reinforced but id guess at about 6mm in the thinner places.
I'm adding stone seats at present. They'll add a lot of rigidity to the hull. Looking forward to testing it. Stay tuned :-)

How many kg of resin did you total use?
How much the final product weights?
hey great watch :) im subscribed for sure.
how big was the boat and also how much fibre glass did you use in total.
Same thing I am saying
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
hello friend... is this gel coat that you apply in 1:12 mixed with paraffin solution?
how big is that?
👏👏👏👍👍👍
Where do you get the mould from ?
How do you make the mold?
I bought this one but I am considering making one for a future video. Just need to get my TH-cam channel going. Please subscribe if you'd like to support my efforts and see more videos like this. Thanks
Sure will!
The clock is not working! Lol
Please so my name is Mark how to make the please help me
how many weeks did this take?
Hi, it probably represents about 18 hours of work which we spread over about 6 days. Thanks for your interest :-)
Any job vacancy sir
Did you make your own mold or did you buy it from somewheres.
as a fibreglasser its so hard to watch this video
Did you notice how thin the gel coat was?
ok you purchased a mold to buy fiberglass and fill up a fiberglass mold. hmm unless you're selling the boat you just made you just wasted money.
I am looking fiberglass job any vacancy in your company
That is the only small detail I am missing. Where do you find a boat mould?
Carl Pilkington?
