What Kind of Plywood Works Best For A Boat

Few days later, Ramil and I searched for the electric chainsaw from hardware and electrical supplies stores in Gensan. We inquired from a lot of stores to compare the prices and we ended up buying one from ECCO Hardware in Pioneer Avenue who offered the lowest price. The last price of their 14-inch Makita Electric Chainsaw was 22k pesos.

A couple of days after, Ramil and I delivered the electric chainsaw as requested by our boat builder, Usop. At this time, Usop also informed us that he will be needing the marine plywoods to be used in the icebox and sidings of the boat. We went straight to the neighboring town, Kiamba, to look for the 3/8-inch Santa Clara Marine Plywood. Unfortunately, it was out of stock in all the construction supply stores there. The demand for this kind of marine plywood was very high and boat builders won't use other brands aside from the Santa Clara.

A gift

In my previous post, I told you the story of how I met my dear friend Jeffrey who introduced me to the fishing business.

I learned so many things from him that day...

Yeah. This guy owns a fishing business at a very young age and his fishing boats are not just after the ordinary kinds of fish you commonly see at the wet market.

What kind of fish are they catching? It's TUNA. Big Tunas.
