: Be careful with the additional coats of epoxy. Each coat adds a lot of weight
: to your boat. Sand the bugs off and varnish. It'll shine.

Thanks Charles

I am being pretty careful not to add too much weight to the boat and am keeping the epoxy thin. The two halves are now glassed and I am starting on the hatches & coamings this week (I hope). I can't get over how light the two halves are without the strongback!
