| Change of plans At first I looked at building in steel but I lack the welding skill to do the job.The only viable option would be to hire a welder.If I do that then I have not built the boat.It wont be of steel. Because this will be my home and not just my boat it must be of a material that will outlast me and be tough enough to survive 25-30 years in tropical water.It seems to me that the only option is a fiberglass plywood combination.It will be faster and more fun. And now a whole new batch of questions  Parallam,has anyone used it for a keel  If you don't know what it is follow this link http://www.bobvila.com/BVTV/HomeAgai...0116-02-0.html here is a good picture of its structure I was going to ask some more with this post but this will do for now.
