Hello All,
The Guilly is finished but I will be putting a skeg in it this spring, I have the skeg box made but I thought for any abrasion resistance some lexan type plastic would be nice. I thought anout carbon fibre but after adding up the receipts I realize I am way over budget on this thing and it seems plastic would be the cheap way to go. Where in the Minneapolis are is some plastic available? Is Lexan the stuff to use?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Dave
