fiberglass
Boat hull material
Fiberglass is a material made of fine glass fibers, used for insulation and as a reinforcing agent in plastics.
Fiberglass insulation fills wall cavities and attics.
Fiberglass-reinforced plastic—lightweight yet strong—forms boat hulls, car bodies, and surfboards: The fiberglass canoe was easy to portage.
Working with fiberglass insulation without protection leaves skin irritated and itchy.
