Abstract:
Fiberglass commonly known in the business as fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) or glass reinforced plastic (GRP) has been used in boat building for over 60 years. In that time, vessels of various categories have been built using FRP. Fishing boat is useful for people especially for transportation. It is not only transport as well as for fishing activities but also once become the main transportation for trade activities and to brings daily need for the villagers. As the used of fiberglass fishing boat nowadays keep increasing from day to day, hence this issue had bring consciousness to author to carry out this research not only to study the design trend of small FRP boat in the UNIKL MIMET research area but also to keep the data on all those boat’s samples so that the design can be preserve and become references for future designer.
