Great! Thanks Rob. Is there any particular brand or type of contact cement you recommend?

Dan

I use Dap - Weldwood, contact cement. most box and hardware stores carry it.

Wear a organic vapor respirator, or work outdoors. Very nasty stuff. Fire hazard also, so no smoking!

I glue my seats onto the hull bottom with it also and glue thigh pads under the coaming deck.
