Default Re: 1977 20ft Master Angler Restoration

I am just hot coating the bottom, the top side will get 1 layer of 1708 with 1.5oz matt on top of that to give me something to sand smooth. I feel since I am using 3/4" plywood putting glass on the bottom is just adding weight. Now if I were going to use 1/2" plywood then glassing the bottom would make sense. And the resin is waterproofing the wood good enough.

Blueheron.. The floor is pretty level when I pull a string and measure up the sides. It is pretty close, may be alittle off. You will never notice once everthing is put back together.
The hull looks alittle twisted because the top cap is not really connected to the hull. Just a couple of screws holding it together. I had to undo a bunch in order to lift the top cap to get the plywood in. But I will definatly put a level on it before I screw down the floor. Once I get the floor glassed I will do the top cap. The space heaters work good but the reddy heater I bought for $30 off craigs heats the place up very good. I can even work in short sleeves!! Only thing is, kerosine is $3.40/gal. I guess I use about 2gal in a evening glassing. I usually keep it off when sanding and stuff.

Thanks for the input guys. Next couple days will be slow. I pulled my back doing something last night. Maybe by thursday It will be feeling better.
