Nick,
One of my concerns is shrinkage in the relatively large volume of an end-pour. When building my S&G's, I used the dam method, but poured in two or three layers. Even with those precautions some shrinkage occured, almost enough to cause a deck-hull fit problem. Could this shrinkage cause the bow or stern crookedness that I notice in some strippers?
You make a good point about the long term ability of epoxy to seal large blocks of wood. Maybe I will use a reduced dam topped off by a smaller end-pour when I get to that point (on my first stripper now under construction).
