Waiter Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I don't know who does skins, but Featherlite used to do a "leading edge and bulkhead kit" The actual skins are flat foam.

michaelj Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Believe it or not the strakes are relatively easy to build. All the bulkheads are flat foam and glass parts. The skins start out as flat foam then you BID the inside foam. No need to scrimp on the epoxy. I have built three sets of strakes and no leaks so far!
