: Bill,

: does, so when sanding the raw wood color will start to show
: through, especially where the corners of strips are getting
: rounded over on the deck, chines, and shear. Although that may

Hi Bruce,
Gonna have to do the coloring after the boat is assembled. Will be doing lots of test strips first :)
Btw, looking thru old baidarka threads, noticed that Rob has already coined the term "black star" for a stretched Firestar, so I'm going to call this one the "dark star" :)
