In Response To: Strip: Using an existing boat as a form (Craig Robinson)

: Hi All,
: Was wondering about the feasability of using an existing hull as a
: form to lay strips on?
: * Would obviously have to protect the existing hull from epoxy and
: could be tricky seperating the hull from the original.
: * Stapleless construction so as not to damage original hull.

: Any other pros/cons?

: i'm sure that this query has popped up before and will do a
: detailed search should there be some merit in the idea.
: Cheers in advance.

Do you have the designer's permission to copy the design?
