outside epoxy fillets
covered with 6oz biaxial cloth - one big sheet...
planing guide - 30" radius on the sheer clamps
epoxy end pour in the bow and the stern
used an old ski rope to tie the wood down to form the cambered deck
epoxied the deck on and secured it with silicone-bronze ring nails
clamps holding the deck sides to the carlins
the cockpit was painted with 2 coats of Pettit Easypoxy prior to adding the deck
planing the excess of the deck off to be even with the hull
6oz biaxial cloth over the deck and used a special "clear" epoxy
I really like the nail heads!
