How many yards of fiberglass?

[Jhegedus92]

Just curious if anyone has an idea of how many yards of 1708 I would need for a 22-2 transom, stringers ECT.

Get a 100# roll.  They come in different widths though so choose the one that works best for you.

Yeah i saw that i just want plenty so I wanna buy it all at the same time i appreciate it.

I did find a site that has 48 yards by 50 inches for 300 is that a good deal ya think?

If it’s 1708 and in new that’s a great price.  Best I did was 375 for 50 yard roll with free shipping.

Call RAKA. Not sure what they get for shipping though...

Another source is Marine Surplus in Bradenton, FL. If you can pick it up you'll save a ton on shipping.

Fiberglass coatings in St Pete has it for $2-$2.40 a pound when you buy it by the roll.

Not bad there...

That sounds like a great price. It's the shipping that kills you if you can't pick it up.

Thanks for the advice guys I'm near sarasota so St Pete isnt to far the website i found is 6.50 per yard on a 48 by 50 roll and shipping is 100 dollars so driving to St Pete sounds much cheaper option lol.

If you haven't already, price Marine Surplus behind the SRQ airport.

I was in there today looking for something else and checked on it. 1208, 1708, 1808, 2415, and 3610 are all $2.50 a pound.

That's in the ball park.
