Epoxy party

The time has come to sheath the hull. Earlier this week, D coated the bare hull in a layer of epoxy and when dry, keyed it ready for applying two layers of fibreglass matting. It was our good fortune to have an offer of assistance and it was a long day for two people cutting the matting and laying it in strips down the hull and then carefully coating it with epoxy so that it was completely wetted out with no dry spots. This exercise took a good day to put two layers on one side of the hull.
