Im not sure its gonna be a V20 anymore!

Its called 1708.

17oz with .75 oz of mat on the back and the cloth is woven at 0/90

Id recommend getting stuff without the mat. I just got a good deal on this stuff. This stuff also has some sort of kevlar woven into it but its not practical.

I used solid core exterior in lieu of treated. Its all biased on whats best to use. For my sake anything is better than the 2 million square pieces it came with from the factory which held up for 24 years. I coated the underside with a layer of glass and 2-3coats of resin on all the end seams. All screws were counter sunk injected with epoxy with a syringe and then srewced down.

First I want to say that I am embarrassed that I can't even DAYDREAM that much work. You have inspired me...at least to do something mediocre so I don't feel so useless.



Second, You will be very happy with that Suzuki DF140. Plenty of power, no blue smoke, and so quiet that you will try to start it while its running! And you turn the key and it starts, every time, and it keeps running and doesn't sputter out...even 5 years after you got it...and you smile and say "I love that motor".
