Genesis bare hull scratch build.

How can you tell it is epoxy glass or Polyester glass?

[Rumdog]

lol. It IS a problem Alpha. Look at what his powertrims are mounted to. It isn't the sponson transoms. The other problem is the price of MHZ powertrims.

ray, the way I can tell is that I've owned poly hulls. It's easy to tell once youve had one. The look, smell, and feel are dead giveaways.

[Gerwin Brommer]

From what i can see, it's just another poly- or vinylester hull.
And that weird "yellowish" colour ??!!
Rumdog : this hull doesn't smell at all ???

[Rumdog]

Nope. No yellow either. Have you seen one in person?
I will say, I'm no expert in laminates.
I does appear to be an epoxy hull though.
If not, I dont really care. It is strong, light, and well made.

[Chuck E Cheese]

dont wory about the material, a good layed poly hull is just as strong as epoxy (well not really but it is plenty strong for RC). i just got a rico from ritchie, one of the best hulls out there, they are made with polyester resin

[Rumdog]

Very true. My Rico is the toughest hull I own.

[Gerwin Brommer]

I was just wondering about that colour of the inside.
just the same as the Chinese Agitator-knockoffs.
The overall looks of it is great, i admit :-)
The only thing you need to do : use epoxy to glue things in place, no polyester.

I' ve got HOTR cat and a Genesis, no comparison between those two hulls. I don' t know if it is poly or vinyl but the Genesis is very strong, and the boat have a nice finish. Genesis hull can be can be easily compared with a Hydro Marine hull

[peells]

This is not a problem, powertrims are adjustable. Mudl' s Genesis with HPR powertrims. Stability and the sound of twins, Waoooww !!!

Rum Dog, show us the bottom of your hull and some close ups of the inside problem areas, maybe one of us can come up with an Idea which may solve your delima!!

I have a Genesis hull from FighterCat also,and believe me,it needs to be reinforced.Ive already reinforced mine,but now,as you Rumdog,am on the search for stingers-and not hi-end units either.If a guy has one of these hulls,do yourself a favor before you start building and reinforce it.It will pay off.

[RIPFENCE]

rum this is going to be sweet...i am going to buy one too eventually..gotta watch this

[Rumdog]

I've got a plan. I'm just waiting on a couple of things.
Plus, it is already freezing up up here. So I'm in no hurry.
