M_Boats: UHMW, HDPE, Cast Bronze

My lead-weighted wood rudder would not stay down until I devised a mechanical means to hold it down . . .   ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 15, 2003 8:23 AM Subject: UHMW, HDPE, Cast Bronze   Based on the observation that a filled milk jug will sink, at least in fresh water, I assume that the density of HDPE is higher than that of water. If you're considering plastic CBs, why not make a simple fiberglass board?  It's bound to be much, much stiffer, and wouldn't be hard to make if the goal was to have a flat, maintenance free board.
