    When researching my materials I found a couple threads about that product being not suitable for hull coring. It’s for decking only iirc

    Hmmm thanks, I've seen some debate on best material, haven't made up my mind yet. Probably go back balsa.
    Just don't want to ever do this again
    Any recommendations would be awesome

    Biggest struggle I had in materials was choosing the core. I was so focused on a wood free ( rot free ) build I was going to use diviny cel but in the end I too, went with balsa. For two reasons; 1. I bought the hull stripped and the core came with it 2. It’s the strongest

    Plus I figure I take good care of my things and I’m resin infusing it as well as gel coating the inside so it should last a while. If water gets into the core whether it’s foam or balsa the hull needs repairs anyways so it’s not as if foam core cures all troubles.

    Stringers directly to hull or on top of balsa core? looks like originally straight to hull but I've seen some builds on top of core?

    Stingers on core that's glassed over will spread the load better than directly on the glass bottom. But, either way will work.

    I suggest you do more research on that core’s performance in slamming loads before using it in a bottom. Floor however is a good bet.

    Good news on side note, got a title and reg. on the hull. I bought the hull in AR and they dont have titles, so I was nervous being here in TX. Filled out 100 forms and I got a TX title
