Re: an aside in M. Broze' plastic-boat screed (which all
made very good sense coming from a boatwright)...

Kevlar is more susceptible to UV than fiberglass?

WHY WASN'T I INFORMED?!

I have read a lot about lay-ups and never seen that before.
I might have thought longer and harder about the 100 bucks
per pound of weight saving I paid.

Bon voyage Matt, if you ain't gone yet. Welcome back if you
are.
