getting there.
what do you think of gorilla glue for the fiberglass to rim/lap joint? whatever you call it?
ie: the glass hull sandwiched between two strips of plywood
there website says 100% waterproof, strongest glue on the planet, etc...
i gotta grind down to raw glass anyways. but maybe that will work better-faster-neater thean mixing cups of fiberglass resin.
i'll resin and matt whear needed, after.

Wow Mike! I thought rebuilding my little 14 Aluminum skiff would never end, can't imagine a project like that. Good luck and keep the pics coming so we can see the progress.
Got a friend out east today will get report tonight, will let you and Stiffy know if it still worth it.
