raising stringers on a 4 stringer 20
I saw this picture of a conch being build and couldn't help but think that the vinyl 2x3 gutter pipe would make a great form for raising stringers 2" on a 20 seacraft. You could laminate 4+ layers of 1708 over these and they'd be plenty sgtrong. They would also make amazing rigging tubes the length of the hull.

I will definitely be stealing this idea. Just picked up the Coosa for the transom today. Great deal off CL. Now I need fabric and resin and warmer weather. Then deck material. And a motor. And controls and electronics. And gelcoat. And...

Pictures like that cure all of my youthful impulses to take on a restoration. Keeping mi eyes open for a restored 20-23.
But just in case I'll remember this solution so thanks in advance. |

Nice Tim! if you don't want to use as rigging tube you can just fill them with foam.

Used these on a Bert awhile back, they worked out better for clearance over a fuel tank than a round pipe would have.
I trust Conch will have a little bit more chafe protection than this travesty on a 750k "Invincible" cat i saw at a boat show a couple weeks ago... Hey at least they gelcoated the tabbing though! Untitled by dirtwheelsfl, on Flickr |
