Designed Boat Plans
The kit include all the epoxy and fiberglass listed in our Bill Of Materials. FGI Epoxy Resin is a high performance marine resin specially formulated for our building method. It has a low viscosity and is ideal for fiberglass lamination. It wets the fiberglass evenly and fast. The mixing ratio is simple: 1 part volume of hardener to 5 parts volume of resin.
To make putty and glue, mix the resin with the fillers supplied in the kit. Add filler to reach a yoghurt like viscosity for glue, add more fillers to a peanut butter consistency for fillets and putty. Information and tips can be found at our boat builders Connection website technical support web site.
No need to search all around town or to compare prices with generic epoxies: our kits prices are lower and include shipping in the Eastern & Southern States of Australia!

More supplies, refills and custom kits:
Our kits contain enough resin and fiberglass to completely finish your boat. The quantities are based not only on our BOM calculations but also on years of experience and feedback from our builders. In many cases, we supply too much resin because it is more economical to buy a large quantity. We also include a 15% waste and you should not run out of resin, However, first time builders may need more resin. Some may want to fiberglass more than what we specify or double the layers. In those cases, where more quantities may be needed, please CONTACT US at BMD.
Our plans show bouyancy foam for those living within Australia. To make this boat unsinkable and for ABP compliance, this design requires
4 litre's (part A & part B) of approved expandable buoyancy foam. Click HERE for more on the Australian Builders Plate
