Time to turn the boat over. Now that the stringers are attached, it is too heavy for Chris and I to handle alone so we rounded up a posse. Thanks for your help, guys!
Now to epoxy the stringers. Here, Chris is adding a bead of thickened epoxy to the joint.
Chris puts additives into the epoxy to thicken it depending on what he's using it for.
Very heavy duty and thick fiberglass is added so that joint is very strong.
And then on the whole bottom of the boat.
Here, he is putting down a fiberglass sheet he will epoxy on. Whenever he epoxies the fiberglass, he needs to smooth it out so there are no air bubbles to weaken it.
Coming along!
