@davidmccauley7068 I can never understand people who didn't use a proper plan to end up with a half decent result. You've got some ugly dog legs there.
I would DOUBLE your transome thickness, to carry the stress of the rudders, I also think you could be using bidirectional cloth as it is stronger , . I will be watching your build with interest, I built my first boat 39 years ago, a JARCAT 5M,.
I will be adding thickness, I want to add more glass to cover screws after attaching. And the bi directional is expensive, I am doing this on a budget. And am confident it will be plenty strong. Thanks for watching and following along!!!
@davidmccauley7068 the screws can be removed they won't add any more strength to the repair, a doubler inside will do far more. On the other hull and anywhere else do the stringers first, that gives you more glue area and fastener locations. Then do the skin
@davidmccauley7068 , hull ply was 3.6mm/ 4mm, and bridge deck was 12mm. Glass was 8 Oz on the hulls to 100mm above the chines, and over the bridge deck underneath, and in the cockpit. They are very lightly built, I built mine in 1984, sold it 14 months later after getting married. I believe it is still sailing , and it was the first of several boats I built.
No, unfortunately, I built the J5, then 5,5meter with an inboard diesel, then I had a 12ft fishing Boat designed by a marine designer, and lastly, I built a power /sail canoe for a friend.

That was absolutely insane. That’s a HOT VIDEO
Use a 6 in roller to lay the epoxy down then squeegee it.
As you progress, please keep cat series in a playlist. I love your video and work!
Will do. Thank you!

What thickness of ply did you use on your jarcat? And what glass schedule?

Thanks! Still own any of them?
