Finally at the stage to lay up the fiberglass on my little World Boat /Jeff Spira inspired Pacific-ish Power Dory flat bottom skiff. She's 400cm long with 150cm beam. It's been a great experience so far. I wish I could thank James Wharram who got me interested in building boats and Jeff Spira for all his tutorials that turned me on to skiffs, sadly they're no longer with us, but I really have to give credit to World Boat Skiffs for this excellent series. Thank you so much.

So what length are you going to make it.

@@worldboatskiff8709 probs leave it at the plan specs but no more than 20 ft

[@TotalBoat]

Such a satisfying part of the process! It is looking great!

[@worldboatskiff8709]

Thanks, l appreciate It.

[@sterlingknight8087]

If you put down a layer of epoxy on the plywood, then put your fiberglass down and apply more epoxy, it'll wet out just fine and you won't have air bubbles and dry spots. When it's fully wetted out the fiberglass will become translucent.

[@worldboatskiff8709]

Do you let the first layer dry

Good job on the epoxy wet out. The curve of the bottom looks really nice at the end of the video. Well done on building. How much epoxy did you end up using? I'm getting ready to order for my son's drift boat and it's 14'. If I remember correctly your boat is about 19'. Thank you for sharing, take care and stay well.

[@worldboatskiff8709]

I used the gallon kit to do the bottom which equals 1.5 gallons.

[@mattevans-koch9353]

@@worldboatskiff8709 Thank you. That is just what I needed. Have a great week ahead.

[@wadeballinger6877]

How long does it take for the slow hardener to cure ???

[@worldboatskiff8709]

24 hours

[@tony7830]

how did you put the cloth down on the wet epoxy, just roll it out on top?

[@worldboatskiff8709]

Yes I rolled it out, I wanted to show that in the video but somehow It got edited out.

[@richarddegen6184]

pour directly on glass, squegee it all, roller is a waste of time, squegee until uniform thickness, opaque appearance

[@richarddegen6184]

overlapping bottom onto sides, wrong, overlap sides onto bottom, otherwise seams on side will look like crap, and require fairing with putty...bottom seams easier to conceal

Why didn't you glass the sides also?

[@worldboatskiff8709]

I have in the past not sure if it was worth the time and material just trying to keep it simple

[@JohnCcapecod]

Can you thin the epoxy for the first coat over the raw plywood?

[@worldboatskiff8709]

I’m sure you can but you have to check with the manufacturer how to do that ,they do sell a penetrating Epoxy. I don’t find the need to.

[@richarddegen6184]

@@worldboatskiff8709 very bad idea to thin epoxy turns out lousy, don't do it

[@richarddegen6184]

will cure soft, or stay tacky

Spreading the epoxy on the Fiberglas looks like a real pain

That fiberglass is very thick. It is a pain.
