How hard would it be to make the panels in strip, and then assemble it like a plywood boat? It seems to me that the panels would act pretty much like plywood once they were glassed on both sides.

: If people are willing to wait long enough, I will eventually do a strip-built
: Walrus. The big problem will be that the forms will be quite far apart.
: I'm thinking of using the basic forms from my skinny version, but adding
: more flare to bring it to a wide 21" beam. ;)
