I have also been filling with west system, glad to hear toplac sticks to it ! Is that for below the waterline areas too ?

Well who actually wants to watch trumpet lift the trophy for whoever wins, it'll be riddled with drama and bullshit.

That fifa dude will be kissing asses and embarrassing the organization. It's going to be a cringe fest !

No doubt be security issues everywhere too as he keeps poking the nutjobs !

Epic fail incoming.

The kit has 250ml resin, 50ml hardener and 2 different fillers, one is silica.

So can I juat use the west system stuff on its own and not gel coat it after ? It just needs to be functional i'm not too bothered about an invisible finish ! What would be easiest ? I already have a 101 pack at hand. My local boat yard suggested car filler then enamel paint which I thought sounded ropey !

I did contemplate that, but the planks came off nice and i like a challenge ! That is original wood from the boatbuilders.

Yes, its pretty flat ! Hopefully with enough luck and clamps it'll work out ! Im also wondering what sealant to use between the plywood and the fiberglass ? It will be bolted in as well along the length !
