Bateau Corsair 13 - Weekend 2 - March 11 and 12


By lncc63 - Posted on 13 March 2006

Today was assembly day! After a few hits and misses we finally got the panels assembled. The epoxy guys came later in the day and showed us how to mix epoxy and prepare filler.


On big "miss" in the assembly happened at the bow where both bottom panels broke under the strain. After some serious thinking, I decided to just go ahead use the panels and make up for lost strength in this critical area with more fiberglass and epoxy. The image below shows the filler we used to compensate the unfair surfaces that resulted.
