I know many builders either A) use VE on the first few laminates - or B) offer VE on the first few as an option.
My question would be - besides adding a few grand to the cost - why not just use VE for the entire lay up? Are there any negatives besides added cost? Perhaps it is increased strength that is not necessary? If you were building a boat that you planned to keep forever (like that ever happens) - would you use VE for the entire layup if the cost was not that much more?
