I know most of the discusions in this part of the forum as specifically for float planes, but at the moment I am kicking around the idea of building an ultralight flying boat, similar to a Macchie M7 or M33. The problem I’m running into is; what do you cover a flying boat with; specifically an ultralight flying boat?
What little I have found has said that the standard approuch of fabric covering will degrade in salt-water.
Any info or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
