Title: CORED or SOLID GLASS HULL on P365's ???
Post by: Johnzion on July 05, 2012, 03:41:37 PM

Someone who knows Pearson's pretty well said some hulls [just above waterline?] were balsa cored [like the P 40] with solid glass around through hulls, and that he thought maybe the Pearson 365 was also balsa cored, though again, maybe just above the waterline.

Anybody know for sure? Solid glass, cored above waterline, all cored? I am looking at a 1980 P365.

Thank you!

I have #65 built in 1976. It has some cores for strengthening in the decks, but no cores in the hull proper.
