Bateau Corsair 13 - March 14


By lncc63 - Posted on 14 March 2006

Put in about an hour of work fiberglassing the starboard chine. The evening was cool so we did not use an icebath which was a mistake. We were laying the 3rd layer when we noticed the epoxy starting to get heavy. So instead of doing the port chine glass as we had originally intended, we instead used the hardening epoxy to coat the uncoated areas of the bottom.

Just as well we stopped when we did. Got a recommendation from Bateau, the designers, to instead of glassing over the cracked bow panels to replace all or at least part of them.

NOTE:
3 layers 6oz woven cloth = 1 layer 12oz 45/45 biaxial cloth
5 layers 6oz woven cloth = 2 layers 12oz 45/45 biaxial cloth
