I didn't have a problem with System 3 epoxy on my first boat, but thought I'd try RAKA for my second due to comments on its low viscosity for better wet-out. I'd recommend both of them. Either of those or MAS or West System can be mail-ordered from many sites, like Pygmy, CLC, Newfound, etc.

In Grand Rapids we have a woodworking shop called Woodsource that supposedly stocks mahogany plywood (I need to pick some up for my coaming), so check out the specialty wood shops, too.

Happy building from another Michigander (displaced Cheesehead.)
