    everything steelflex

    The turkey baster did not work. This stuff was really thick today but the temp was around 55 degrees. Made a nice mess but the bottom is painted. Used 3/4 of a gallon on the bottom should have enough to do one side in the spring. Thanks for all your help Damifinow Fish

    steelflex epoxy

    Hi I'm getting back to the boat project and was looking at the fasco epoxy web site. What was the name of the epoxy that was inexpensive that you could get in the color you wanted? I'm looking for a tan color. Do they have a color chart? I did not see it on the web site. Thanks Damifinow Fish

    Removing flotation foam?

    I don't think removing the foam is going to help balance the boat. I just relocated my foam and the big 8x8x12 block weight nothing. the wind even blow it out of the boat. Can you move your seat back an inch or two? I have the same problem but in the stern. just my opinion Damifinow fish

    alumacraft's 2nd life

    The plastic bins are permanent. I wanted something that could hold the shape when the foam was sprayed in. This should also keep the water out from soaking up from the bottom. The bins are from Ikea. They were about 1/4 inch too high but they have a nice lip to get them tight to the underside of...

    alumacraft's 2nd life

    The boat only had one storage compartment. With this set up I've gained a lot more storage. 4 just in the bow. And I think I'll end up with even more flotation foam then the boat started with It be a few weeks before the next steps get posted Fishing season is here Tight lines Damifinow Fish

    Should I or Shlould I not

    You can always rent one (canoe) before you buy one. Some canoes out there are more stable then others. Try to rent the one you think you might like to buy. I can't believe this but I'm looking at a 12 foot canoe. I wanted a sea kayak but then the dog could not go with me. Damifinow Fish
