2 piece Vs. 3 piece Hulls
I am building a case on wether which would be better a 2 piece hulls (fiberglass) or 3 piece hulls (fiberglass). Considering that each boat has deep V, what would make a 3 piece hull better?

Any input would be appericated.

Thanks

maybe he is speaking of sandwich...3 pieces = 2 skins + 1 core? but then I woudn't see how the 2 pieces will fit in the picture...since it would be 1 piece = single skin

Best to have your boat in one piece, you tend to get a little bit wet otherwise!
