Day 7: Hull fiberglassing

Dad and I sport our fabulous glassing outfits.

We all had a long day wearing a respirator but it was worth it. With 3 people the glassing of the hull went smoothly.

First thing this morning we cut the glass this morning and went straight to it.

We wetted out the 17oz biaxial cloth on the bottom.

Next was the 6oz on the sides.

Then 9oz on the bottom.

Then 6oz halfway up the sides.

A final 6oz on the bottom.

Next came the 6oz tape; 6", 3", 2" on the chine, transom and bowpost.

Now the waiting game until a good cure. Next step will be to pop it off the mold. We have our fingers crossed!!
