For this demonstration we used 5.5 lbs/ cu. ft Airex foam but any brand of closed-cell structural foam compatible with epoxy will work. The foam can be found at most online and local boatbuilding supply companies.

    One of the better "how to" vids in boat building I have come across. Thanks very much.

    That was just fun to watch and very helpful on a hard-dodger idea I'm working on. Thanks so much!
  • Thanks for taking the time, I appreciate your effort.
  • You have the voice of a senior pilot, Captain I would say. Nice technique with the foam.
  • I'm getting ready to build a 17 ft. Garvey Jon this way.  This is a great video!
  • The video was very nice and boat looks great. Nice of your guys to do this. :)
  • Thank you so much for the video. You have confirmed that scarf joints are unnecessary with foam core construction 😊
  • Excellent informative video ..I was thinking seriously about using ply but this seems so much easy and has to be lighter ..

    Awesome, I'm not building a boat yet but the technique you use is helpful. Thank you for sharing this👍
  • great design . in rc scratch building with foam board we use regular hot glue guns on the foam . it bonds like CA glue without the brittleness . the pieces are darn near welded together
  • I did enjoy the video and learn a bit more about boat building. Cheers
  • amazing technique, exactly what I was searching for my project
  • @crazyrayuk36
    That's really well explained and the video demonstrates it all well . Thank you for sharing 😊
  • I would have liked to know what epoxy you're using. Knowing what works well on foam and what doesn't is extremely valuable info.
  • Thank you for making this video because books don't really show you how easy this can be for the average person. I might try this on a small scale to gain experience then move up to novice? Thanks again.
