The beginning of September was concentrated work on getting the final smoothcoat of epoxy on.
That was followed by five (5) coats of varnish. When I realized that the kayak's hull was not going to be pretty because oversanding, I decided to make the kayak robust.
So extra fiberglass tape on the keel, extra reinforcing at bow and stern, additional reinforcing on deck behind stern deck hatch, reinforced hatch covers plus building the stern up for a rudder installation in the future all added weight and hopefully robustness to the kayak.
