: I am building a bootlegger canoe out of mahogany and about ready to
: glass. I have seen Nick put kevlar in bottom of kayaks is there
: any reason to do this with a two person canoe (hopefully
: wouldn't be hitting any rocks) should I use a 6 oz glass cloth
: or heavier? Second I have used west system epoxy on my sailboats
: and find it very troublesome in high humidity. Does anyone know
: if the Mas or system three would be a better choice of resin to
: use as the humidity is often high here in north carolina.

Agree with Paul, Kevlar shouldn't be needed. It's also not easy to use, have to have special sheers to cut it, regular sissors won't dent it, it's very expensive and it's hard to tell when it's wet with resin, so easy to get too much resin and actually have less strength rather than more.
