But, but, what about the little FS14? :cry: Shouldn't it get in the water first?

Are you thinking of using peel ply on the LM18? It's a little late on the FS14 I thought.

I'm going to try heavy plastic sheeting on the NC16 and see how that works. Long sheets cut to the size of the panels. I will have to cleanup the seams.

I did not use any sheeting. I would have needed 3 or 4 helpers to do it right! :?

Sorry don't know Peter-curacao.
Yep Bob you have not been on the Forum long enough to have followed Peter's CS25 build and his use of it.

His build thread is at the top of this power boat section.
Utube video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ENfKOC ... e=youtu.be
Spend a little time and watch the video. You may even want to read through his whole build thread.
It is a master class on how to build a boat right :!:
