    Hi Steve, the epoxy is from u. s. composites . Its the 3 to one mix with medium hardener. The cloth is a 1208 biaxial which has a cloth and mat bonded together as one piece. Ive been using it quite often and am pleased with the results. Its good for repairs as well.

    Fiberglassing

    Glass the boat without the keel in place. Attach the keel with fasteners from inside. Use a bedding compound as well. I would double the layer of glass in this area as it takes most of the abuse. On top of that keel use brass or aluminum half round. High density polyethylene is a third choice.

    Two-Tier Bag Limits Coming?

    Seems like if one guy in your crew has a 3 bird license , it's an insurance policy against an oops bird. In the old point system there was a lot of reshuffling the deck. I'm not advocating doing that but just trying to expose some potential flaws.

    Well i got most of the twist out of it . I would not call it fair, but i pulled it in at one point 5 inches. I took my detail tool and cut the inwale free of fasteners and dropped it about an inch. Probably did 50 laps around the boat checking on things. Just about out of oak but glued up the...

    I got her flipped and I have some problems. As you can see by the inwales the old girl has settled and my fair curve has disappeared. I'll have to noodle on that a bit. some water and steam plus some station molds should get her back.

    I replaced the original transom using the old one as a pattern. I left it uncut for the motor because i'm not sure if I am using a SS or LS . I doweled together two pieces of ash and used epoxy and nails to attach. My plan is to at least have the hull glassed by the fall. I started this project...
