Trailer bunks...

While the boat was upside down, trailer bunk "splashes" were taken using the hull for a mold. The first step was to cover the hull with plastic so that nothing would stick to the hull.  Next came a layer of peel ply followed by 3 layers of heavy glass roving


Half inch high density foam was glued over the glass

The outer edges of the foam were rounded and a fillet was added next to the glass

Three more layers of  heavy glass roving are glued over the foam
