I have the newer version of the UL1, I used epoxy on the inside of the turn fin area to add strengh. I am still getting stress cracks along the inside area of the sponse. I made sure the epoxy flowed to that area. Any ideas

You can do the pour foam mod to the inside of the front hull, it really stiffens it up.
I have the old version and no cracks yet.Namba District 16

ul1 turn fin area structure cracks
What is the type of poured foam I should use and how should you inject it? Should you tip the boat so the foam reaches the correct area? I already used injectable epoxy in this area and it still developes cracks.Comment
