[QUOTE="Rat, post: 101474, member: 1914"] I got a little done on the ol' girl after work today. On the fore deck and hatches I put the second coat of epoxy, laid the 12 oz biax glass and wet it all out.I also drilled the oversized holes for the stainless screws on the rear frame of the fore deck. Didn't get a chance to get the plugs in before my neighbor called about a bad water leak he had. So I ended up playing plumber for a little bit :evil: At least I got a little glass down though. As you can see I cut the glass proud. It is easier to cut it with a razor knife after it has cured than to try and get it perfect with the shears before hand. I also left plenty one the back so it will wrap down the rear frame about three inches to tie it all together and for abrasion resistance.
