Epoxy

I am building an Osprey Standard and have some problems with putting the epoxy on the hull. 1. After glassing the hull, the area near butt joints in the middle of the boat has a very faint, cloudy appearence. Is there anyway to avoid this? 2. I can't seem to get the epoxy to fill the weave of the tape strip down the keel where it is not horizontal, any tips?. 3. If more than 72 hrs. have past between coats of epoxy what has to be done before the next coat?
