I plan on using a lot more of this stuff.

I want to make a splash board. If I put two strips of stainless steel, I could drop a simple panel in the gap, and it would add practically no weight to the boat.

I will also need to make a new engine cover for my sailboat.

I know a few gals that do canvas work. I was debating getting a canvas enclosure. Then I thought about a CC I saw in Noank that had a three sided enclosure and realized that would be cheaper to make one myself, out of Nida Core, than hiring a canvas, and I could make it removable. A possible future project.

One thing I won't do is buy this stuff with gelcoat. It is a PITA to remove.

BTW, my hardtop is coming along nicely. I have 7' of 1.5" fiberglass tube. I'm going to try to incorporate this into fore and aft handholds on the hardtop.
