Quick Nick Shade style cockpit coaming tip

A heat gun works wonders with yellow glue. I stripped my Cormorant coaming in about an hour--glue 2-3 strips, hit 'em with a heat gun. Repeat

Shawn

: I just installed all my coaming risers using your dab of hot glue at the top
: method, it worked great! The dab acted like a mini clamp holding the
: yellow glue joint tighter together. I was able to strip the opening in
: less than an hour. Without your tip, it would have taken much longer, as
: it has on previous boats.

: Thanks again,

: Larry C.
