Re: V20 Hull Construction
Is the hull of a V20 cored? I see a lot of talk of replacing stringers, but never anything on the coring material of the hull.
I don't think we ever answered his question, I don't think it is but that is not a for sure answer. Anyone? Bill Mc ;D

Re: V20 Hull Construction
My understanding of cored hull refers to a hull built in a laminated manner with a sandwhich of so called rigid foam of one kind or another, Franco's boat is a cored hull and that is why he could not use the volvo trim tabs he had bought earlier.
The V20 hulls are the solid fiberglass hulls and not cored

Re: V20 Hull Construction
The only thing "cored" back when my ol' '74 was laid up was APPLES!!... ;D...Wellcraft did add flotation later, but when I think of the term ''cored'', I belive that refers to a hull that contains flotation actually LAMINATED between the hull and the deck/ cap...like the Pubah's McKee... ;)...

Re: V20 Hull Construction
I BELIEVE THAT A "CORED" HULL IS WHEN MATERIAL IS LAMINATED BETWEEN FIBERGLASS CLOTH, USUALLY ON BIGGER BOATS, IT ALSO IS THE PLYWOOD OR WHATEVER MATERIAL IS USED FOR DECKS, ETC.......

Re: V20 Hull Construction
The V20 doesn't have a cored hull. The hatches and stringers are cored with plywood, but the sides and hull are all glass.
I looked a seabird 27 or 28. It looked like a big v20. The hull and sides were cored with Thick Balsa. The balsa core around the thru-hulls had rotted out, but the hull was very solid still after 35+ years. The 24ft seabirds have the 24 degree deadrise!! I think they made a 21 with a 24 degree deadrise too, but I'm not totally sure.
