In Response To: How much varnish?!?! (Dan Caouette (CSCWC))

OK, I re-checked, and the diffrence of seven kilos is from finished, fibreglassed with hatches but no bulkheads to finished, varnished with bulkheads, so some weight is the two bulkheads, but they were made of 3mm ply, glassed with one layer of 6-ounce glass both sides.

The shop that did the varnish is where we lease all our company cars from, and they did it as a favour, and in fact did say that they used two "packs" of varnish, and each pack is seven litres.

Don't forget the HC Great Auk has a surface area of 78 square feet!
