: "Yah, right"???? (I'm so glad I offered advice! .. but we'll let
: that pass) As a matter of fact, you do. You are spending a great deal of
: time and energy if not money, to build your boat. To save a few bucks by
: using a material that is harder to work with, stinks to high heaven, and
: doesn't do as good a job is what we call false economy. Nobody is more of
: a cheapskate than I am, but I will gladly pay for good materials that make
: my job more fun as long as it doesn't break me. Your boat will be worth
: what you put into it, no more, no less.

Sorry james... I'm acctually going to use epoxy... hehe. my only question now is if I should take a layer out of my layup...
