    I am Building a 45ft grp motorboat. I have two supliers I trust in mind ,but i could do with more choice and price comparison's. A reputable/cheep suplier based in the uk .

    R&G, not based in the UK, but the best value for the penny as many of your predecessors have found out! Highest available quality at prices a "Brit" does not dream of.
    But 120Kg is not too much for a 45ft??? I mean "grp queen" ???

    I haven tried R&G yet, A few years ago i was recomended euro resins but they couldnt or wouldnt get near Glasplies on price.
    I have a plug & mould to build for a 27 ft rowing gig this summer so will be looking for competitive supplier!

    Well, not following advice, given for free is a bit unsmart, or not?

    I guess 230 kg barrels will be cheaper then 120 kgs.

    We only do 230 kgs and 20 kgs, nothing in between. How much do you need? I could make you a price... (although gbp-euro rates are not in your favour, but I can give it a shot)
