More glass taping



Started taping the outside chines (only one left to do) but have run out of epoxy which is just great - not. I've ordered some more from China Wind Yachts because without it work will stop altogether as I can't do anything more until the taping is finished.

Carried on trying to bend the gunwales, there's a bit more set than before so it's going in the right direction. In the mean time I was talking with my dad who, as it turns out has a steamer, so I might try it out.

Spoke with "Woodman" from SoTP forum regarding methods of bending gunwales. He suggested fitting the inwales first and screwing them in using countersink screws which will be covered up after fitting the outwale.


Total spend to date £338
