Researching hull liner construction techniques

External Since: Mar 16, 2005 Posts: 1

Hello,
I've posted this inquiry on a couple online forums, apologies if you
already read a similar post...
I'm researching classic fiberglass boat construction techniques using a
fiberglass inner liner or hull liner that serves as both sole/deck and
longitudinal/stringer structural element. One example of this is
SeaBird boats from the early '70's, with their innerliner system. Does
anyone know of other boats that were made with this kind of technique,
from the early 1990's or earlier? I'd be particularly interested in
documentation from the time period.

I'd greatly appreciate if you could email me with any leads you might
have. Thanks!

Screw the email.

Take a look at Cape Dory boats, and Albergs.
