> Tom, like Larry said, it's pretty straight forward. Are you thinking of using thickened expoxy because there are gaps in places? Either way unthickened glue is used first to soak into the end grain, then the thickened epoxy will be anchoring into strengthened wood as well as filling gaps. If there are gaps that are long enough to prevent unthickened glue from holding the deck on temporarily then that's a different concern. fun,fun,fun, what's the next boat?
