Hey Brian,
Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad the pics have helped you. I live in Lake Butler, Fl. (30 mi north of Gainesville) which is ~120mi east of Wakulla +or- a little.
As far as US Composits epoxy is concerned, this is the first time I've used it, so I'm not at all experienced with their brand.(or any other for that matter) But, I posted a question about it on the BB and got a favorably response, so thought I'd give it a go. I'll let everyone know how it works out. For what its worth, they seem to be very personable and they gave prompt attention to my order. Everything was well packaged and the cloth was on a roll.
I just checked and the fill coat is still a little tacky, (slow hardener) so I'll have to wait before I can get the glass on. I tried to put the glass on the hull but it's difficult to smooth out the wrinkles while slightly tacky without pulling the weave . . guess I'll put that piece on the inside. HEHE. Nice to have some extra!
Here's the link to US.
Happy Building.
Charles
