The question is; is the luan hull with the glass the equal if the okoume hull?

: On the boats I built both with luan or Okume, I put a layer of 4
: oz. glass on the entire bottom wrapping around the chine and
: going up the sides 4 inches or so. I later feather that edge off
: and I fill the weave.
: I also put a layer of glass on the floor of the cockpit. The rest
: of the boat I coat with epoxy.
