I have a 1988 32 Classic and it is a Vinyl-ester / Kevlar lay-up and checked with the man ( Peter ) on that issue . Simply put any boat layed up with Vinyleter resin are not affected by todays fuel , epoxy and polyester resin have the problems . When they "fix the tanks" on affected boats they use Vinylester resin . My Skater is almost done

The tank problems aren't limited to the 21 ,24 and 28's ...all the models are effected from late 1988 until the lamination was changed to prevent the ethanol damage..

Hey Kev, Do all the poly boats have Kevlar in them or was that a lightweight option?? Al
