Side sheeting clamped and glued in place.
Bottom sanded and ready for bottom sheeting.
Bottom sheet clamped and weighted.
Start clamping, adjusting the sheeting for equal
overlap on the top and bottom.
Clamp thoroughly, but be careful not to distort the
chines.
Using a new mixing container and applicator, do the
other side.
Allow to cure at least 3 hours. Repeat on other side.
Bottom Sheeting
When the side sheeting is fully cured, plane and
sand the side sheeting even with the bottom of the
bulkheads. Be careful not to change the shape or
angle of the bottom.
When you are satisfied that the side sheeting and
bulkhead bottoms are flush, glue the bottom sheets
on the same way you did the sides, using 30 minute
epoxy.
Use a couple of clamps and some heavy weights to
hold them in place.
Check to make sure that nothing has shifted, then
let it sit for at least 3 hours.
