I've been procrastinating pretty bad lately and finally decided to make a trip out to Fiberglass Coatings in St. Pete for some scouting. All I can say is these guys are awesome. Talked to a gentleman named Pat and he literally knew everything there was to know about fiberglass. So much so that I was lost numerous times in our conversation. Anyway, here's what I'm looking to do:
14 ft Mitchell
- Floor
- Front and Rear Decks
- Gunnel Caps (I think that's what they're called)
- New transom.
Something that looks very similar to this:

Materials we discussed:
Diab type60/type 80: Can I use this material for the decks and bulkheads? If so, I'd use 1708 Biaxle correct?
Poly Umac?
Nidacore...
For the floor I was thinking about making glassed foam stringers and not sure what material for the actual floor itself. What lb. density foam would be best and what type of fiberglass to seal them?
Basically I want to get a better understanding of what exactly I need to buy and not go there and buy unnecessary things and wrong amounts. I live 45 Minutes away from this place and making multiple trips isn't very efficient with the Hemi.
So many questions.....
