G R P

Can anyone recommend a web site or good book about working with G R P.
I’m looking for information on building A boat from scratch as well as repairing damage.
Thanks all

It's not just about laminating some CSM up, but covers structural integrity, foam cores, all sorts.

Yeh, and your curtains from M & S!

Totton Timber is pretty competitive for marine ply, and GRP Supplies for glass & Resin.
