Glue the pads on so that their inner and
rear edges are flush with the sponson.
Tape firmly in position and allow to cure.
Check for alignment once or twice before
the epoxy fully cures, as it is critical that
they remain flush with the inside and rear.
The hull is now ready for finishing.
Note that the photos show ride pads being
installed on a finished boat, but the same
thing applies to the bare hull.
Finishing
Sand the entire hull with 80.
Fill any dings, dents, craters, valleys or
chips with wood filler.
When dry, sand again with 180. Check to
make sure that all imperfections are filled.
If not, fill and sand again.
Spend a little time getting this right, as it
will make your boat look so much better
when done.
