In Response To: Walrus Finishing Weights (Roger Nuffer)

your info is very interesting.

for 41.5 lb we can get a reasonable s&g, can't we ?
& it will be stronger.

about sealing the frame with epoxy, it adds some weight but it also adds
strength & protects the wood from the salt water, so the frame will live longer. I wouldn't give it up.

I believe george roberts knows alot about saving weight. does anybody know
if he is doing sof ?
