Grant,
It's the Greenland style S&G from the Fall 1994 Sea Kayaker. The temperature reached 60 today. As far as how long to cure, well temps are only going to be in the 40's tommorrow so I guess it might take a few days(?). It was cooking up nicely when I wrapped up work a little earlier and by tommorrow morning it'll probably be pretty hard to the touch based on my limited experience with epoxy. I plan to leave it until next weekend before doing any more work. I've got to go out of town on business the latter part of the week. I figure that'll give it time to cure for sure and since I'll be out of town, it'll keep me from getting anxious and trying to do something too soon.

Thanks for your interest,

Tony

: Looks pretty good Tony. Is that a Cirrus you are building? What are the
: outside temperatures and how long did it take the epoxy to cure?
