Ken, That's interesting. 1 oz chop and 1 oz mat seem ridiculously light. Doesn't say how many layers of each? Was the schedule different for the plus? the XL?
FWIW, I'm holding the 4" circle I cut from the deck when I installed solar fans on my 34R. The piece measures 1/32 shy of 1" thick, and I can see the many layers of glass, with two separate layers of kevlar with their yellow fuzzy ends. The balsa is 3/4", outer glass layer w gel coat is 5/32", and interior layer is 3/32" thick approximately.

The 37+ was a bit thicker, both topsides and bottom. Ken H. On 10 October 2013 16:40, Robert Abbott < [email protected] > wrote: I always thought the 34R hull was made from kevlar.....am I wrong?

Mike The new hulls are stiff but they hole through a lot easier than the hull of an older C&C which has solid glass reinforced polyester...Once saw a power boat in slow reverse with the ss swim ladder supports pointing aft...go too close to a 34R and there was a hole through the hull...rather easy to puncture I thought On Wed, Oct 9, 2013 at 10:25 AM, Hoyt, Mike < [email protected] > wrote: <blockquote> Curtis Not really sure how the hulls are weaker. They are not made with solid polyester based resin layup though. The C&C 99 is laid up using Epoxy not polyester so in many respects could be considered stronger .. Or if not stronger than certainly lighter for the equivalent amount of strength? Speaking of Beneteaus. The Beneteau 367 sails well for racing and has a huge interior for entertaining or cruising.
