Does he like being called a helper monkey?

[Low Flyer]

Better than a monkey helper.

Since when are helper monkeys allowed an opinion? I never was.

Hey! Enough about the monkeys! "Flying Test Monkey" is an excellent position to hold and I won't hear a word against Helper Monkeys either

"Flying Test Monkey"

[biffer]

Not my choice. It will down to the owner

Biff. Can I ask how many layers of tabbing you put on transom, how many layers on wood too please

[biffer]

On the transom we put 2x 600 chop, 1x 800/300 combi then another 600, same amount for tagging
On the floor we did 600 on both sides before we fitted them, tagged again the same and over all the floor joints then a layer of 600 over the whole deck

Thanks Biff.

I'm doing transom in epoxy and 450 biaxial next week. Been debating with myself for quite a while about tabbing. Outside is 15 mm thick. INSIDE skin was minimal. Transom knees 10 mm thick over foam. Going to replicate that but more inner skin.

Fantastic work and has anyone used a composite material for a deck/floor replacement as opposed to ply?

Thanks

[biffer]

We haven't had one of these for a while so here you go

Very nice - I know where to come when I want the Ribtec redecked, although I think (hope!) it is purely the (non sealed) deck that has a few soft spots, and the ribs/stringers/bulkheads seem to be encapsulated and solid.
