It's Friday night - time to glass the deck. Started off by running tape about 1 inch down from the deck seam, then draping the white cloth over the top of the deck. After a few tugs and prods, it was in place. I trimmed it so that the cloth was roughly mid way through the blue tape.
Next came the resin. Getting low on my supply of resin. May have go out and buy a small bottle or two. We'll see. So, got the hull all "
wetted out". Looks good. Ran the plastic squeegee over the top to take out the air bubbles. When It is done drying I'll cut out the holes for the cockpit.
This is the stern of the boat - showing the cloth overlap and the hull identification number.
The resin is curing and the timer is set for 2 hours. After a couple of hours, I'll need to go through and trim the fiberglass with a knife at the tape line while it is still in a plastic state.
