12 Boat Cover

I will be doing some hydrographic survey at Batangas Bay and the neighbouring island. I need to rent a boat for Daylight work for around 1 week.

Possible replies:

Thanks for letting us all know.
12 pax, good luck, it will take at least a few cases.
Coincidence? I need to rent a party barge to troll for beach babes.
and......?

Is this is your way of asking for leads for charter boats? Don't expect anything elegant but just go to the docks and you will be able to hire a banca.

Let's assume when you leave, the sky is blue etc...you;re 5 miles from shore and a freak-storm catches you by sursprise.

Assume this is a small 10-12 people boat, with no cabin, no nothing...no cover at all from rain or wind.

How do you keep SAFE from lightnng, wind, waves, rain and make it back ok?

What do you do if you capsize?

What type of safety equipment MUST be on board?

If possible , head the boat directly into the wind or straight away from it , or at least quarter into it to keep from the waves swamping your boat- you will have to maintain power to do this. You can pray about the lightning. On your equipment it is law that states a personal flotation device be on board for everyone on the boat and a fire extinguisher be on board. If you are going to be 5 miles out, you need a compass and gps unit to get you back in with-also flares and a air horn in a can to be used to alert someone that you are in trouble- also a marine radio and cell phones to alert authorities. If you capsize, try to get everyone to stay with the capsized boat and hang on to it- it will be a lot easier for the rescue teams to find an entire boat, instead of several people scattered out , in which some may be found too late.
Hope I gave you a few ideas that you may be able to use, but hope you never have too!

Why is quarter inch plywood to risky.How bout honeycomb method with quarter inch plywood sandwiched together with honeycomb structure in between. Also where can i get CAD viewer on the net.Can i submit a design to an engineer to test.Is honeycomb a proven method.I would like to make a boat about 12 to 14 feet long for fishing in lakes and able to attach at least a 9.9 outboard motor.
Is fiberglass worth doing and how expensive is this technique.I thought I would use three coats of any kind of primer with three coats of marine paint or concrete (covering) paint on the hull or bottom of the boat.I was going to use brass screws also.I thought about using ribs and incorporate them into the seats to be out of the way.Also the seats would also substitute as storage boxes.I planned on making my own set of oars with three pieces of wood each.I also thought of attaching an upright seat to the bench type wooden seat I was going to install.
Any help would be much appreciated.Thanks !!!!!!!!!!!

To start with, get plans. You can contact Small Boat Journal, Messing About in Boats or Wooden Boat for contacts for plans. We know someone who made a boat from luan, 24 feet by 4 feet, a schooner. It was a Phil Bolgers light schooner. It held a 4 man crew and won a race off Fairhaven, CT in the sharpie class. Dynamite Paysen is the name regarding stitch and glue. Use te West system over wood, not fiberglass. Most of Phil Bolgers boats can be built that way.

Maybe you need to put an add in the local paper, or on EBay, or Craig's List.
Maybe place it along side a busy road with a 'For Sale' sign on it.

By the looks of the question you are trying to use the questions section to list your boat for free.

Please read this explanation:There is a man made pond that was once a nice little fishing spot for baby bass and catfish. Now too many people have seen us fish it and it has become pretty crowded with people who don't respect catch and release. The pond has been holding fish for about two or three years now and the bass have not grown one bit. They are all small enough to grip completely with one hand around the width of them. What factors do you think are making these bass not grow at all? Do you think that there are still a few big ones in there? If so, how would I go about locating those ones since they must be spooked. The place is too small for a large boat really but paddle boats can fit comfortably so depth finders are out of the picture. I don't think there is really alot of structure and cover in the pond either. If there is any good sized ones where would they be holding in a place like this. And if there isnt any, then why? Is there a way I can change this?

Fish grow to match their environment. You have a man made pond - not much you can do except increase the depth and width of the pond! Feed them more maybe, but not likely.
