    TIP- Huub: When I was grinding fiberglass and sanding under my boat I used a Box fan in back of me to continually blow the dust and small fibers in the air away from me. It worked GREAT! kept me breathing clean air!!

    Hey Hubb, make sure you keep that mask on ! And keep a good one on at that. You are young now, but in twenty years you may see and feel the effects of breathing in the fiber and resin dust. Stay safe ! Just think of your lungs as vacuum cleaner because that is exactly as they act.

    You're so very lucky to have a friend with such extensive experience in glassing. It's quite obvious he has done a lot of fiberglass layup and has a professional understanding of glass structure and resin management. Completely wetting out roving and hanging it on the bottom takes a skilled hand -- with the number of layers of roving on the outside of the keel alone, it will be built like a tank. I don't envy you having to work in the heat with the fast curing times. Well done.

    Huub, great meeting you in Annapolis. Having done some fiberglass work in my life, what I'm seeing here is really good work. I think the work will serve you well on the water. Take your time and get it right. Thank you so much for documenting what you're doing. Someone else in the future will be able to see this and do good work themselves. Be good friend, and hope to see you on the water at some point.

Speaking of which, how about an update about how she is doing? Keep up the great work -- slow and steady wins the race!!!

    Impressed with the way he got all that glass on, I've done glassing work and the pressure is on to get it down and done before it kicks. He's a better man than me, there's no way I would've wanted to do that many layers in one go, in hot weather and especially on that position of a boat, it's very good work

    WEST System epoxy is a very fast curing epoxy. Even the slowest cat. is very fast, if you want a slower epoxy. Look into pro-set resin 225-235 and 229 cat. . A better grinder to use is the masonry grinding wheel for 4" grinder. They grind just as fast as 36 grit, they dont wear out and they leave a much rougher surface better for bonding. Not so good in tight rounds and very un even surfaces, great for everything grinding other wise.

    When you are preparing the resin for your fiberglass you mention measuring volume but then I see you measuring weight. Is it necessary to do both? The two of you get so dirty working on your boat. Each day when you are finished sanding or scraping or fiberglassing do you go somewhere to take a real shower or to the harbor for a swim or just take a hose and wash off in cold water? I really enjoy seeing the fiberglass technique, thanks for sharing.
