Wow Bob, nice lines. Dramatic but restrained I'd call it. Can't wait to see the deck.
I'm sure it's easy to over bevel........that would be my tendency I'm sure. Other than a little extra epoxy inside, I doubt it will matter.

BTW, I just put on a filler coat of epoxy. Heated the shop to nearly 80 with the wood stove so it's cookin'. I believe I need to get the cloth on when this is no longer tacky but not cured, right? Do you use a filler coat? If so, how long do you wait for the cloth coat? Is it true I can wait too long and then have to scuff it up?

Thanks, Ian

I started a second Spring Run back in the fall and have just
: finished glassing the hull. Lots still to do but thought I would
: share some pics. One is attached as part of this post and I've
: included a link to PhotoBucket for a few more.....

: The hull stripping pattern is my own design and intended to
: resemble the water or air flow around a projectile. The main
: part of the hull is in medium WRC, the light pattern in
: Ponderosa Pine and the dark center is WRC. Each color is
: separated by a strip of African Mahogany. The stems are in
: African Mahogany as well. The deck design will match the hull. I
: wanted it to be different from other designs I've seen and so
: far, have not seen anything like it. I'm looking forward to
: getting the deck stripped so I can see the whole effect as I
: think this will be an interesting boat.

: Also, I'm beveling strips as I go and having reasonable success in
: getting tight joints on the outside. A few required some putty
: to fill but after it's paddled a few times, the scratches will
: overwhelm any stripping faux pas. The inside is another story.
: There are lots of gaps where the bevel fit on the outside but
: did not fit the inside. Good thing this is a kayak and not a
: canoe where the inside is widely visible... I need more practice
: on beveling......

: Hope you enjoy the pics....
