I'd like to report that I've made no progress on my
winter project. Last weekend, I made a pilgrimage to
Chesapeake Light Craft to purchase a sheet of Okume so
I could begin my project. The trip was a great
success despite having lost our brakes on the Capitol
Beltway in my friend's rear windowless, rusted-out,
beat-up e.80's Ford F-150 (I always travel in style).
Anyways, I have begun drawing lines onto the plywood
and will purchase the hardware after my post-Christmas
economic recovery. I
Once the frame is complete, I plan on inserting the
frame into the skin by means of a large access hole
created by installing a zipper into the skin. I
understand Nautiraid and possibly Pouch boats use
zippers on their skins. Do they use waterproof
dry-suit type zippers or marine grade zippers
(similair to YKK's vislon watersports zippers)?
Thanks for the help.
