Skin-on-Frame: Wasted Days and Wasted Nights

After pondering, thinking, and procrastinating for a year, my attempt at a Yost Sea Rider flew together tonight. I started the evening with just my stations cut out, built a sweet strong back, attached stations 1 and 8....and left the whole thing dry fit. What a maroon

Question - My warehouse is ice cold (around 40 degrees) and no way I am paying to heat it. Would it work just as well to peg and lash it and skip the epoxy/glue all together? I am talking chines, keel, and gunwales. (no warm temps in sight)
