of the sole in places. Working upslide down in tight places is tough.

I like someone's idea of using overlapping strips of glass tape with bound edges for the upside down work.

I glassed the bulkheads and corners really well. I am amazed it leaks too, but I can live with it. It is a slooooow leak.

Paul - Isn't your leak from the ballast tank and not the CB line fitting? -- Todd-2023C-SFBay -- 3/17/08 2:49p.m.

A models leak also -- Tom, 2023A, Coupeville WA -- 3/19/08 5:28p.m.
Tom, "bow air chamber", as in 'aft'? -- Gary, Santana 2023, Milwaukee -- 3/21/08 11:34p.m.
Oops, I meant to say "stern air chamber". -- Tom, 2023A, Coupeville WA -- 3/22/08 5:27a.m.
