Glassing the exterior ...... 31 and 1/2 hours and counting


In the plastic tent, heater on and three 150 watt light bulbs heats the "shop" to a cozy 65 degrees when it is 30 degrees outside.  It should cure in 24 to 36 hours.    

Glassed and epoxied in 3 and 1/2 hours.  Process was straight forward and no surprises.  Builder only slightly goofy after sniffing fumes for 3 plus hours!! 



Laying out the 4 oz glass cloth was easier than I thought.
Sanding, I love sanding.  Sure glad I hooked the sander up to my shop vac.  My eye glasses were still clear enough to see after an hour of sanding...not the case prior to hooking up the shop vac!!

Interior has second coat of epoxy, ready to flip the boat and start glassing the exterior
