: This does sound like good stuff. I have already sealed and glassed the
: outside of my hull. Does it seem like a good idea to use CPES as only the
: seal coat for the inside of the hull? Could you then skip it in the inside
: of the deck?

Since you could use regular epoxy, you could of course skip the CPES anywhere you want, but if you are using it for its good properties relative to regular epoxy, those benefits would apply on the deck just as well as the rest of the boat. If you think it is worth using elsewhere, it is worth using on the deck.
