Sheathed strip - Limits?

hi!

I have been building boats with traditional methods and use epoxy or resorcinol for gluing laminated frames etc. But am curious about the Sheathed strip techniques. What are the limitations of these techniques? How large a boat can you construct with these techniques? Is that question even relevant?

Where do you start to read about the technique?

Regards.

Mohan

In Norway fairly large (heavy) boats are built this way. At least 40 or 50 feet, traditional designs.
Since you live in Stockholm, I suppose you understand Norwegian:

There are many books on the subject, Gougon Broters is still a classic(?).
