Glassing Done

The fiberglassing step is finished and I have added the strengthening Fiberglass Strips at the stems/ keel. It looks pretty good except that i had some trouble with the stain that i tried to use to darken the hull with. After applying the first coat of stain the whole canoe turned pink! I tried to darken it a little but then it turned purple so I decided to forget about the stain and go back to the original idea of painting the outside. I wanted to paint it originally anyway, although I would have liked to see it natural outside in the sun.

Next Time.
