Well Folks, I'm slowly getting there. The hull is glassed inside and out and the deck has all the glass in and out except for a short piece reaching from 1' in front of the cockpit to 2' aft of the cockpit on the inside and 1 fill coat. I'm doing a little "overkill" again since I'm not so petite. But, I did force myself to go with a lighter weight glass than I used on my wife's yak.
The straps in the pic are holding the deck to the correct width while the inside glass cures. I used four 100 watt lights and a plastic cover to dry the wood on the inside of the deck prior to glassing due to the high humidity we have experienced since the outside was glassed. Before drying, the deck was almost 1 1/2" too wide in the center. Its hard to believe what humidity can do.
Maybe I'll get to see if she floats before I croak after all!
Happy Building.
Charles.
