: Unfortunately, it's like everything else on their boats, it's
: inconsistent. I could be 1/4" thick in some places on a
: deck and paper thin in others. On hulls, I've seen it 1/2"
: thick along keels and almost "see-thru" in other
: spots.

I love the design, not the construction nor the excess weight. Eventually I'll build a duplicate, likely in strip then sell this one.
