I'm hooked! I did the complete coaming in 1/2 hour using SuperJet gap filling, sanded then immediately followed with 'glass. 3 days of work in one short evening. By combining the cyano and 15 minute epoxy in limited areas, I managed to accelerate the whole process and go from buying the wood to floating the boat in 14 working/ 23 calendar days. No I didn't compromise, I used RAKA epoxy, 6 oz glass, 6 oz tape on internals, full end pours, fill coats, the whole 9 yards. Why not use alternate materials if they 1)have no adverse effect on the design, and 2)Simplify/accelerate the process?
