been there. I've also found some slightly thickened cab mix on those uneven spots helped me with the voids - instead of grinding too deep around it. I'd just wet the area down with neat resin, pull some thickened resin over the uneven spots and glass over all of it wet. the area where my old engine mounting blocks were was especially rough so it helped me there. Also the side of the stringers (though you've got smooth coosa).

I've been using heat lamps and small sections which has helped. I have some portable heaters too. I have a few more long runs to make before the deck can go on, so I'd like to get it done before I get froze out.

Did you shrink wrap your tent frame?

Yeah it’s all enclosed which is nice. Rain did not stop all day today and I was still able to do a second layer of glass on the outside stringer.

Little update got the middle two stringers cut and bedded down. Coming along. Going to wrap a layer of woven roving from hull up and over the stringer down to hull on other side and then one more layer of 1708 should make it strong as hell.
