        It is a light layup epoxy hull with the carbon fiber cloth in the bottom to stiffen it up.

          Is it a polyester hull or fiberglass?

                  Well Im confused now. The hull appears to be thin polyester with a very thin gelcoat. Probably not epoxy as epoxy doesn't have a gelcoat finish.

                    Epoxy and polyester are two different types of resins that are used to saturate (wet down) the fiberglass or CF when a boat is being built. Both are used with gelcoat. Epoxy is more expensive. It's a little stronger and a little less brittle when it bends.

                        What is the width & height? I may be interested in this hull.

                        I have to sign off for tonight, might be back on in 1-2 hours...

                        Talk then.

                        Could I see a pic with canopy on from a rear angle to see the side profile& transom?

                            As you asked for the width is 8", depth is 3" at the back and the length is as earlier stated 34".

                            The cowl will need to be trimmed to your liking.
