How to Install & Fiberglass in New Stringers Into a Jet Boat

Installing & Laminating New Stringers Into a 1979 Centurion #jetboat

In the last jetboat video I posted:    • How to Cut and Fit New Stringers to a...  

I covered how to cut & fit stringers to the hull. That video is really the first part of this video. In this "second" part of the video, I will cover the steps necessary to bed in, install, & laminate the stringers.

I walk through the steps that I took, & the products that I used to attach & bed the stringers into the hull. I cover the cleanup & prep needed in between the bedding in, & the lamination of the stringers, in addition to covering the steps taken to fiberglass them in.

Toward the end of the video, I do spend some time outlining the lamination schedule, & layup that I chose for my stringers.

My goal is to try to keep the detail high in these videos, while also trying to keep them from getting too long & drawn out. I will try to break these videos down into smaller segments. So if you haven’t, I encourage you to subscribe to the channel & turn on notifications, so you can be notified of my new videos. I hope that you find this series of videos to be helpful for your project, or just enjoyable to watch. If you have comments, suggestions, or tips that you would like to share please leave them in the comments section. I would love to hear what you have to say about the project & video…

Thank you for watching!!!

About AutoTechNick:

Growing up in rural Oregon I was always around Hot Rods & Race Cars. I imagine my early exposure to this culture ignited a spark of interest in cars, which remains my passion to this day.

🎓 I am a proud Alumni of Wyoming Technical Institute, where I studied Automotive Technology, Performance Engine Building & Street Rod Fabrication. In addition to “Wyo Tech”, I graduated from the BMW Service Technician Education Program. More commonly known as BMW S.T.E.P.

🏎️ I spent nearly 10 years working in various BMW dealerships as a Master Technician. After a move back home to the PNW I found myself no longer servicing German-made machines, but now working with Italians. I spent nearly another 10 years as a Ferrari Master Technician, & Shop Foreman at a local Ferrari dealership.

🏆 I was selected by Ferrari as one of 12 technicians worldwide to compete in the “Ferrari Testa Rossa Awards”, consecutively for 4 years in a row. Finishing in 3rd place in 2016, & in 2019 I was able to place in 1st. Winning the competition & earning the title of the Top Ferrari Technician in the world!

🚀 As my time with Ferrari came to an end, a new career path awaited me…. Aerospace. I am currently working at Blue Origin, helping to build & develop the BE-3PM and BE-U rocket engines.

With my new career path, I needed an outlet for my automotive passion, thus the reason for this channel…
