The latest task involves lots of sanding and cleaning up of excess epoxy. There wasn't as much squeeze out as I expected. I filled in all the holes left by the lay up of the 1/4 inch ply on the hull. I managed to miss quite a number and so had to go through a second round after I had sanded. I put a 1/2 inch round on the inside and outside of the rail as well as the top of the hog. I stared a lot at the hog and spent some time at the wood pile looking for appropriate material for a very modest floor. Found a nice piece of fir. I put a thin coat of epoxy on the insides. Took the afternoon and I still have to touch up the insides of the chine with a brush. I used a plastic spreader for the bulk of the hull. It makes for quick work, but it doesn't leave a uniform surface. I assume the epoxy primer will help a bit in this regard as well as some pre-primer sanding.
