Report: outside forum guidelines

One year after cutting open the cabin sole, we finally began applying epoxy this week. 1) glassed the vertical supports aft of mast compression post.(post also) 2) spread The WEST epoxy underneath the old sole sections 3) cutout new floor piece using old cutouts as template. 4) discovered this is the worst maintenance job EVER on any sailboat I've ever had - including nasty bottom jobs. 5 Tomorrow we will place tabs around cutout and screw them in from above 6) I even got epoxy in my hair
