Talking about skegs

In Response To: here are some answers (erez)

I have a question, how do you prepare the box on the inside to protect it form the water? It has to be hard if not impossible to epoxy the inside. So what do people do, just varnish the heck out of it.

I am planning on starting my Feather sailing canoe this weekend. The centerboard needs a box similar to that of a skeg. So does anyone have a link to a site that has more info about the construction of a skeg and the box.
