: It's good to hear someone else is looking into this stuff ;oD.

: I'm still planning on using polyester (probably 8 oz., unless I can
: find 12 oz.). Seein' as the PL doesn't seem to seep through the
: fabric, I figure I'll want something that doesn't sop up any
: water that finds its way into the kayak. A coat of Rustoleum
: Marine or two should protect it. Haven't figured out a paint
: scheme yet.

: I just need to finish my workbenches... should pick up the rest of
: the lumber and MDF on Monday, assuming the Chief Financial
: Officer (my wife) approves the budget. Then I need to finish
: swapping out the timing belt, idlers, front seals, and rear main
: oil seal (oh yeah, the oil/air baffle plate, too) on my Outback.
: Then, I can start work on my Sea Tour 15 EXP. By the time I get
: the kayak built and sewn up, the weather should be warm enough
: for me to PL it outside, then let it cure in the garage with the
: door open.

MDF? For a Yost boat?
