Winter renovation of a 14' plywood dinghy, set to "6 months in a leaky boat" by sevenz. work on the boat included scarfing new hull panels, removing the old thwarts and creating new side benches. Epoxy is the perfect solution to help with the common wooden boat repairs. instead of replacing entire damaged plywood panels, damaged areas can now be cut out and bonded into place creating a strong and resilient wooden boat repair.. Plywood can be part of a wall, floor, ceiling, roof or even a boat. it can become scratched, cut, gouged, dented, blistered, separated or rotted. if damage to the plywood is not so extensive that it requires complete replacement, the damaged areas can be repaired..
Home > boatbuilding / repair boatbuilding / repair whether you're constructing a new boat or repairing an older model, we have the supplies you need including marine plywood, west system epoxy coatings and application tools, fasteners, fiberglass, aquagard bottom paint, awlgrip products, sandpaper, tape and more.. This is my blog on the repair of my 21ft plywood boat "marama". i have rescued her from a life of slow decay rotting away under the trees at the family farm. she has a bit of rot in her and will need some extensive repair before being put back into service.. I seem to have written a lot about repairing older plywood (and other types of timber construction) boats whether motor boats, sailing dinghies, canoes or motorboats over the years so i would like to bookmark some resources here..
