: Bill,
: This material is just like dry bag material come to think of it. How much
: heavier is this compared to a skin and seperate sealing material you
: think?

Ha! Ha! Well, if we're talking about my boat, it may even be lighter :-) That was canvas + roof sealer + latex paint. On the other hand, compared to Mikes boats (canvas + paint or polyester urethane) and possibly Roger's (canvas + paint) I'd say heavier. As Roger mentioned too, It may present some covering/stretching problems. Putz uses canvas + paint, ssimilar to what I used, but then he talks about 70 lb boats at one point :-O
