New Visitors - About Us
First of all, Welcome! I'm Kelly Wood, I created FiberGlassics. I hope you enjoy your time here. FiberGlassics is an enthusiasts website dedicated to the preservation & use of classic fiberglass boats... period. This website has evolved 5 times since its beginning in 1998. For more information on the history, see our scrapbook located in the menu above under Galleries > Scrapbook. The purpose of this website is to provide a free resource to anyone looking for information on older fiberglass boats. All information on this site is free. You pay nothing to view the information contained within this site. You fill out no forms, join nothing, nada. We have a forum that is quite active and most answers can be found by simply posting a message and asking. The only stupid questions are the ones not asked. It is not a website that sells boats. The webmaster doesn't know everything about all boats. Don't email him and ask him. If you have a question, try out our forums (message boards) located in the menu above. If you find that there isn't information on this site about your boat and you just happen to have something to contribute, try emailing us and donate the information to the site for all to see. Started in 1998 by Kelly Wood, this site was the first of its kind. It now stands alone as the single largest web site of its type in existence. The idea here is to collect and compile an easy to use, online resource containing information on all fiber glass boats built before 1970 (and some after), thus becoming a powerful informational resource on the internet. Remember? That WAS the original intent of the world wide web when it made its debut in 1994. Information... Our collection of FREE information grows every day. Here you will meet many kind and generous people. They are willing to share just about anything. Our purpose here is to find information, make it available on the site, and keep it FREE...forever. Yeah, I know what some people think, Why should I support this site and give any money towards this??? I can get it free here Well, yes... it is free here... You do not have to do anything. Unfortunately, that IS what some people do... they find what they were looking for, use the resource, then they leave... Never ONCE thinking about the bigger picture behind the making of this and what it takes to keep it running...much less... build it. So, YOU DECIDE, is it worth supporting? This website is run by ONE person. It is not a site about Kelly, a personal page about Kelly, a site about how cool he thinks he is, nor is it some arrogant, self serving, dorkey puke page of links or about his ability to plaster pictures of his pets all over the internet. It is a site about boats. Many times this site will help you in your search, sometimes it will not. If it does not help you, do not complain about it, DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT! Become a supporter! This site only exists because of the supporters... We do not make a killing here unless you are refering to knowledge. Many times the supporters have simply stated that the information they had uncovered here is worth well over the small amount they donated. We are not out to get your money, it is just something we request to help support the continuance of the site, spirit, and general idea. Now, take a trip with us into the past... in the exploration of something that will never again be...quite the same. On behalf of the supporters of FiberGlassics and myself, Kelly Wood...
