2. Fiberglass spray lay-up process - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiberglass_spray_lay-up...

   Corvette fenders and boat dinghies are commonly manufactured this way. It is very different from the hand lay-up process. The difference comes from the application of the fibre and resin material to the mould. Spray-up is an open-moulding composites fabrication process where resin and reinforcements are sprayed onto a reusable mould.

3. Limber hole - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limber_hole

   A limber hole is a drain hole through a frame or other structural member of a boat designed to prevent water from accumulating against one side of the frame, and allowing it to drain toward the bilge. Limber holes are common in the bilges of wooden boats. The term may be extended to cover drain holes in floors.

4. Fiberglass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiberglass

   Fiberglass (American English) or fibreglass (Commonwealth English) is a common type of fiber-reinforced plastic using glass fiber. The fibers may be randomly arranged, flattened into a sheet called a chopped strand mat, or woven into glass cloth .

5. Carvel (boat building) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carvel_(boat_building)

   Carvel built or carvel planking is a method of boat building in which hull planks are laid edge to edge and fastened to a robust frame, thereby forming a smooth surface. Traditionally the planks are neither attached to, nor slotted into, each other, having only a caulking sealant between the planks to keep water out.

6. G-10 (material) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-10_(material)

   G-10 or garolite is a high-pressure fiberglass laminate, a type of composite material. [1] It is created by stacking multiple layers of glass cloth, soaked in epoxy resin, then compressing the resulting material under heat until the epoxy cures. [2] [3] It is manufactured in flat sheets, most often a few millimeters thick.

7. Fibre-reinforced plastic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre-reinforced_plastic

   Fibre-reinforced plastics are best suited for any design program that demands weight savings, precision engineering, definite tolerances, and the simplification of parts in both production and operation.The fibers provide strength and stiffness to the material, while the polymer matrix holds the fibers together and transfers loads between them.
