Is the dagger board expected to be hollow?
HP daggerboards are hollow. The new ones (drawings are coming) are built in simple flat sheet moulds with glue on leading and trailing edges so there is no fairing or glassing of the exterior of the board after moulding. ie, the shape is perfect. The edges are made in a short mould (we can supply the leading edge 3d printed or get them machined locally. The trailing edge mould is 2 pieces of flat material glued to form an angle ) so damaged pieces can be replaced.
A lot of excitement about the pvc pipe, but is it a problem? I didn't see anyone knowledgeable chime in one way or the other.
Epoxy sticks to pvc if it is well sanded. or there are no peeling loads. Most boat building foam is pvc. The pipe was not the problem.
