    Dear All,

    We are investigating the use of closed mold techniques. Does any of you know where to get some information regarding the ercentafge of boat builders that make use of vacuum infusion instead of hand lay-up. Globally of for a specific region.

    Thanks,
    Niels

    It would be difficult to tell and would depend on if you meant hulls and decks or small parts, it woud also depend on size. The majority of builders are either making some parts, or are at least looking into it and the ones that get into it never look back.
