Hello to all! I discovered this forum while surfing all of the large scale RC sites I could find. Although I have built several static sail and power model ships, I find myself itching to build a large RC cutter or schooner.
  Does anyone have any experience useing fiberglass reinforced closed-cell foam on a large hull? Seems like it would be an interesting medium to use. Easy shapeing, can't sink, stable, and although it would take a lot of ballast the finished model would still weigh the same as it's counterpart built out of any other material.

What's your opinion?

Thanks......

Hi
Check out "fiberglass hulls" on this forum should help.
