: Thanks, Bill. I've been 'Googling' and looking at some different sites -
: sounds about right.

: I'm curious - how do you make your riser for the coaming? Ply, or with strips
: as Nick has shown in his books?

Hi Geroge,

I make the riser outsides from strips like Nick does in his book. The inside is carbon fiber. I bought One Ocean's book for instructions on building the coaming, good info cheap.
