Frequently Asked Questions

How do I dry out my hull?

Frequently Asked Questions
There are two things to consider when dealing with a wet boat. 1) The water you can find and drain, i.e., the inch sitting in the bottom. 2) The water that has gotten into the structure - the foam and the fiberglass itself. The foam blocks and fiberglass can absorb a 100 pounds of water or more into the structure and leave not a drop running in the bottom of the boat. We pretty much automatically install a 4" port behind the splash rail, even in a new boat.

Once wood is dry will it remain dry?

What is Dry Mouth?

Fresh Breath Clinic | Bad Breath + Halitosis Treatment | Tor...
Oral dryness can be the result of insufficient production of saliva. More often, we find that the dry and pasty feeling described by our clients is a response of the tongue and tissues of the mouth to an increased VSC production. Once the oral bacteria are reduced and their by-products eliminated, the sensation disappears and there is no longer a complaint of oral dryness.

What should I do about a tobacco that's too dry?

G. L. Pease - Frequently Asked Questions
My method is to put the tobacco in a large, clean bowl, and cover the bowl with a damp towel. The towel should not touch the tobacco. Check the tobacco every couple hours, and when it reaches the moisture level you like, store it in an airtight container. Glass "bail top" jars work well, but be sure to clean them thoroughly. (See the next item on mold.) Different tobaccos take up moisture at different rates.

What is dry AMD?

Facts About Age-Related Macular Degeneration [NEI Health Inf...
Dry AMD occurs when the light-sensitive cells in the macula slowly break down, gradually blurring central vision in the affected eye. As dry AMD gets worse, you may see a blurred spot in the center of your vision. Over time, as less of the macula functions, central vision is gradually lost in the affected eye. The most common symptom of dry AMD is slightly blurred vision. You may have difficulty recognizing faces. You may need more light for reading and other tasks.

Q3: Is There Water In My Hull?

Classic Whaler: Boston Whaler: Reference: Frequently Asked Q...
Worries about entrapped water in the interior of a Boston Whaler hull are common. The construction of a Whaler is based on the "Uni-Bond" technique where two relatively thin uncured laminated shells are bonded together and filled with a liquid which quickly expands into foam. The boat is left in the tightly clamped molds to cure into a single structure in which the foam is continuously bonded to the laminate shells, producing a very strong and lightweight boat.

What is a hovercraft hull made of?

DiscoverHover: Hovercraft FAQ
A hovercraft hull is typically constructed from aluminum, fiberglass, plastic or plywood, or a combination thereof. Some racing hovercraft have been made from composite honeycomb sheet aluminum. It is important that a provision be made for buoyancy so the craft will float on water. This is usually done by installing urethane or styrene foam inside the hull.

What is a hull component?

snitfaq - Snit's Not Incr Tcl, OO system
Snit can't create a Tk widget object; only Tk can do that. Thus, every instance of a snit::widget must be wrapped around a genuine Tk widget; this Tk widget is called the hull component. Snit effectively piggybacks the behavior you define (methods, options, and so forth) on top of the hull component so that the whole thing behaves like a standard Tk widget.

How do I get a hull identification number (HIN)?

NYS DMV - Frequently Asked Questions
If you have a boat that does not have a hull identification number (HIN), you must get one before you can register the boat if: You can get an application form from the DMV or from the NYS Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (OPRHP). Send the completed form to the OPRHP. The OPRHP arranges your boat inspection for you. Visit the OPRHP web site.

What is hull speed?

FAQ
Hull speed is the maximum practical speed of a displacement (non-planing) hull. Since a wave's length is proportional to the square of its speed, the wave created by a moving hull will at some speed become longer than the hull's waterline. At this speed the stern of the craft will no longer be supported by any of the following wave crests. You will feel the stern squat into the trough following the bow wave.

Q2: Where is the Hull Identification Number?

Classic Whaler: Boston Whaler: Reference: Frequently Asked Q...
The Hull Identification Number (HIN) takes three forms in the Boston Whaler: the stenciled serial number, the metal tag, the embossed number. Numbering of the hull was initially voluntary but after November 1972 became a Federal requirement. Virtually all Whaler hulls are identified during molding by a black gel coat number containing about seven alphanumeric digits and apparently applied with the aid of a stencil. We call this the "stencil serial number.

Q5: How Do I Repair Damage to the Hull?

Classic Whaler: Boston Whaler: Reference: Frequently Asked Q...
The hull construction of a Boston Whaler differs from most all other recreational boats. Accordingly, if the hull becomes damaged, special techniques need to be used in making the repairs. The recommendations of the factory for repair techniques applicable to a Boston Whaler hull are extremely well illustrated in a separate article in the Reference section. The exact instructions and procedures recommended by the Boston Whaler factory are reproduced in the Reference Area.

Q10: Is a Wavy Hull Side a Problem?

Classic Whaler: Boston Whaler: Reference: Frequently Asked Q...
There are some reports of the appearance of wavy indentations in the hull sides of older Boston Whaler boats of all sizes and ages. Manifestations of waviness in the hull sides of classic Boston Whaler boats is assumed to be the result of contractions of the foam interior after the boat has been removed from the mold. As long as the bond between the laminated hull skin and the foam remains intact, these waves or dimples do not represent a structural problem.
