Oh yes, I did read that. That is going to be a great reference. I just wondered if you were thinking beyond that. One of the reasons I enjoy reading this forum is that people have so much to offer from experience beyond what is published. (I like a good publication too!)

I teach chemistry; I know how epoxy works. But somehow, standing in front of my own boat with the stuff in my hands, I still get nervous! Strange, right? It's new territory for me to be doing something like this where I have negligible experience and therefore limited confidence. I can see why it's a hobby for some because everything I do, I want to try again and do better. I may be hooked.

So for now my goal isn't a work of art (although I'd like to get there someday). Ill be happy if she's seaworthy and not too heavy!

Thanks again for your help!
Jenn
