Epoxy, Fibreglass, and Carbon Fibre

With the wood out, it was time to start building up the keel stump.

I covered the keel bolts with electrical shrink wrap.

I first started with about 1/4" of epoxy over the entire keel sump.
I made sure it completely covered any remaining wood.

Next were layers of fibreglass, saturated with epoxy fibreglass resin.

After I got about 6 layers in, Richard came by with some 4" carbon fibre mat.



I probably got 6 layer of carbon fibre, followed my another 6 layers of fibreglass.
