I've given the it the 1st layer of thickened epoxy. I'll put the 2nd layer of epoxy in tomorrow, when I'll also add the tape to the still soft mix, as well as epoxy butter the bow.

I wanted to glue the keel somewhat before I back the screws holding the bow together off.

I'm joining the keel in two layer because it's a deep vee. Heat's an issue. It will be rough enough to sencondary bounding shouldn't be an issure.

Nice to be back working on it, after a month I think it has had plenty of time to "settle"!
