[QUOTE="Centrarchidae, post: 348549, member: 12622"] Made some progress this weekend, but not as much as planned. Got the first coat of Spar Urethane on all but 7 pieces by 10 AM Saturday. Masked the gunnel trim and shot some self-etching primer on most of the inside of the hull. Should have been able to get at least 2 coats on the wood, but it ended up raining with falling temps into the 50's so it took too long for the urethane to dry. End of day it was still too tacky for the 2nd coat. Too cold and too much moisture. 2nd coat on today, just above 55 °F, but still cold and rainy. Won't have time for 3rd coat until Tuesday. Then, flip the wood and do the other side. Maybe on Saturday I can finish the wood and primer - supposed to be warm again by then. I decided to use the sheet insulation for foam - closed cell from Menards. Started cutting it to get started, but I think this will need to wait until all the wood is ready to go in as I would need to remove the foam to install the wood and electrical. It seems quite easy and fast to cut anyway. [/QUOTE]
