It does appear that the stringers could start a little wider and taper towards the front. Just gonna take a little cuttin on the spreaders.
Are u going to glass the stringers in with mat
not today,probably Thursday
stringers are glued down today. I wish that you could do one at a time cause it sucked havin to rush around. I had my spreaders numbered and everything ready to go in sequence, but that resin starts going quick when it's 90 out. Tomorrow I'll take the frames off and make a new batch of sawdust glue to touch up.

transon is glassed in around the sides and stringers to transom. Today,if I have enough resin left, I'll glass in one stringer. By tomorrow all glass should be done. The most valuable lesson I learned was to clean up the resin paste better durring the install cause it took me all day sanding to clean it up. Of course having the compressor down and using electric tools didn't help either.
Looking good snake.

gave stringers a coat of polyester and built a bottom for the front bulkhead and glassed that in. As soon as it's hard, I'm gonna sand any rough stuff and roll on the floors and transom. I got resin on my feet,my elbows,forearms,knees,shins,hands.....
floor is actually all red this morning. Used the evercoat red pigment in the resin and it didn't cover well. Gonna double the amount and give it a last coat this morning.
DO NOT USE THE FOAM ROLLERS. Freakin thing came apart 1/4 of the way into the floor. Luckily I had a spare, which didn't last half as long as the first. Had to finish with a brush.
