    I have a 35 center console w/T250 that was damaged during the last hurricane season, the major damage was done to the side deck area. I have stripped all damaged areas and repairing using 3/4 core-cell A500foam in the effective areas. The deck structure design was rebuilt using Core-cell and is already in place ready for lamination, I am able to get at both sides of the core. Here's my question.......What fabric lamination schedule/Type/weight/# of layers would you think be best to cover the core-cell for this fairly high impact area. Area is approximately 8 ' long, additional stiffeners can be added internally. This has been a great project for my son and I, but want to get it right. Thanks for any help. Doug
