GLASS 'N' FLIP

Once we had the panels zipped, filleted, and taped we then glassed the hull. We glassed the hull in a morning, although a very warm Queensland summer! Glass was first cut to the hull shape, this was a two person operation. Once we had the glass sorted it was my responsibility to constantly mix epoxy, while 3 others glassed the boat. I mixed in 1L amounts every time as this was the maximum i could mix without it flashing off in the hot sun. We used foam rollers to get the coverage. Once it was all on we then Peel-plied the hull. Following weekend we pulled off the peel-ply and lifted the hull off the jig, which was very rigid even with only 2 frames in it.
