building rear deck have this ordered for each side corner



was going to make a 1" deep gully to to put them in now kicking around just recessing them in deck corners just below flush with deck.
Maybe a little nicer not having a 3 1/2" wide gully to step in.What do you guys think?

What I've found out is that water has a mind of it's own as far as ponding in corners and places you'd never though it would. You're probably better off designing a place it can't resist going into - like a trough.

Got the tank in, put a couple stiffeners on the cover







I plan on 2 layers of 1708 on the deck, 2 1/2 pound sinkers dropping on the deck is the norm with some of my crew. Plan is for gelcoat.Will 2 coats of gel smooth out the 1708 or will I need to lay some 6 oz. clothe on top of 1708 before gel?
Thanks

Fishhead,


My unprofessional opinion would be to use epoxy (because you chose plywood instead of a composite board as deck coring) as your resin for the floor and therefore eliminating Gelcoat as an ideal finish coat. With that being said, Mat would be the best option to eliminate glass pattern and prepare for finish application…. but because it’s the deck, I assume you are going with a sand grit or similar non skid texture? I’m a huge fan of Gelcoat as finish in boats because of its hardiness and longevity and personally going that route on my projects. However, I am sticking strictly to composite (coosa etc.) Not saying that I don’t believe plywood to be a very suitable material but I wouldn't be sealing it with anything other than epoxy if I was using it.

Hope that makes sense.

Looking good FH!! What did you coat the bottom of the 3/4" plywood with?  Did you soak the edges with poly?
As for finishing the plywood, 3/4" is still going to flex a little (not much though) depending on the person walking on it, causing some cracking. What is your plan for applying the gelcoat - dump gun? Roller? For the lamination schedule, if you add a layer of 3/4oz csm down first and then lam the 1708 weave side down for both layers you'll end up with the csm layer "up" so there will be no weave to cover.  Then apply the gelcoat. Then glass bead in the wet gelcoat for non-skid?

Thank you guys, I used 2 layers of 1708 under the whole deck with poly. Yea Rick wet out edges. I have 5 gallons of vinylester for the deck top. Happy with the way the deck feels already. That sounds like a good idea Rick, I will go that route have some csm and 1708 already. I haven’t thought about the way to apply the gel yet but want smooth, I’m throwing on some of that imitation seadek. Will rolling gel get it done enough for what I’m doing?

I don't think you will get smooth with a roller. If you were going to use glass bead it wouldn't matter.
Here is a pic of when I rolled out the hatches just before applying glass bead - you can see the stipple and this was with a small foam roller

Thanks Rick that looks great, just ordered a cup gun and gelcoat. Even vinylester resin on west coast has supply issues but was able to get some.
