Boat Building with Composite Materials | Coosa Board | Sailboat & Trawler Restoration (Ep17)

Описание: In this episode of Motor City Boat Werks, Joe shows you step-by-step how to build custom boat cabinets using PVC foam board (Celtec/Komatex/Sintra). This ultra-practical material is waterproof, rot-proof, lightweight, and easy to work with, making it perfect for DIY boat restoration and marine cabinetry projects.
I discuss Coroplast, Coosa Board, HDPE King Starboard, PVC Foam Board, Celtec, Komatex, Sintra, and Fiberglas G10. I also talk about building boat cabinets out of Celtec or PVC foam board using the Screw & Glue Method. This week I cover a Nav Pod and Refrigerator Stand Celtec boat building project.
