  • I know that I searched high and low to find out how to close a through hull before I started this. And the help I received from a fellow Endeavour owner, was priceless. He had his own projects going on, but took the time to not only tell me how to do it, but SHOW me. We love being a part of this sailing community and feel like we made a great choice to live this lifestyle.
    Thank you all for watching and subscribing.

    Great video. I did notice you were using a chopped strand mat backing on the fibreglass cutouts. You may not want to use chopped strand mat with an epoxy resin because of the styrene binder, which glues all the strands of fibreglass together. Epoxy resin does not dissolve the styrene binder in the chopped strand mat, which can lead to problems of delamination down the road. Polyester resin is catalysed with Methyl Ethyl Ketone Peroxide (MEKP) which dissolves the styrene binder in the chopped strand mat, making it a suitable resin. Other types of fibreglass cloth can be used with epoxy such as a biaxial weave with a stitched mat backing.

      Thank you for that. It's something we will keep an eye on. Did a ton of research and didn't know that. Thank you so much.

    should actually start with the biggest fiberglass circle piece and get gradually smaller

      Definitely start with large patch first. More contact space for strength. You have it backwards is all. Good video
