Definitely a nice looking boat!

: I have a resident cat supervisor, named Sparkle. She left inspection stamps
: (dirty paw prints) on the glass wet-out of the inside of the deck on my
: latest kayak. Hope she doesn't inspect any exterior surfaces.

My basement has been declared a cat-free zone... the door to the main floor of the house is closed....though occasionally the quick footed kitty (named "Kitty Kitty"-- the other cat-- "Kitty" is considerably slower)... has snuck through the door to the basement to inspect as I'm going in or out.... I'm hoping to avoid ever having to call my vet to ask how to remove epoxy from a cat.... or to remove an epoxied cat from a boat. (My vet is a member of my church, so I would NEVER hear the end of it.)

The time I worried most was when I was gluing the panels of the Tern to full length...on the floor of the basement... and Kitty Kitty-- then a kitten, appeared.... he had gotten the laundry chute door open and slid down to the basement. I did think to take off my gloves that were sticky with epoxy *before* endeavoring to catch the cat.... and I did manage to keep the cat off the newly glassed joints.
