Chris,

Just a thought, what sort of glue are you going to use for the second layer ?? now it has a filler base layer.

Do you need another layer or could you just cover with glass cloth and resin after using blocks at the bow?

Ray – sticking with aliphatic resin. Haven’t had to use any filler so it will be timber to timber which is good.

Colin – I was hoping before I started that I might be able to get away with one layer but after sanding, the thin ply is now even thinner in places, mainly where turning towards the bow and stern where the venetian blind effect was worst. So I’ve got to stick with two layers really and it will be nice doing it withe bass.

Yes, Bass is nice to plank with, I see what you mean.
