Re: [harryproa] flat table laying up

Hello Rob,Doug and gang.
 
What is "Rob's way of doing Harriette" ?
 
I have just completed ( 4' x 22' ) resin infusion table and will be making panels for replacement float hulls for TT720 and test building methods of future Harryproa.   
 
I am thinking that using preglassed panels for majority of hull would be a good quick way to build Harryproa. You could use panels for most of side of hull, deck and flat bottom. then add beveled panel or large  (6" to 12") radius strip foam joints to hull deck and bottom.  What do you think?  
 
What is the current thinking for the best mothod of building Harryproa using fiberglass and foam core ?
 
Happy sailing,
George Kuck
Chestertown, MD

Hi All,
 
Really enjoying Rob's way of doing Harriette - so far really easy and quick.
Still behind him but trying to catch up.
