Excellent job guys! Such clean construction and shop. My shop is like a dust bowl by comparison.

Great way of holding the stem bands in place.

Nice inlays.

Thanks for watching. The hull is 2 1/2 layers of 6 oz. glass. A third strip is run along the keel about 4 feet from the stern and bow. The deck is, I think, 3 1/2 oz. S-glass. It might be 4 oz., but I remember them talking me into lighter glass for the deck. Yes, we sanded after the second coat. Heavily--60 grit. Then another coat, or 2 if needed. Those get finer sanding--through 220 or 320 wet. Then the final varnishing with UV protection. More later, I have to go out to the shop.

Many thanks for uploading! The new deck looks awesome. What weight does the fiberglass cloth you used have? Didi you sand betwenn the layers of epoxy?
