I finally got around to the fiberglass/epoxy stage of my Tango. This is my first experience with fiberglass. It was easier than I thought. It was also more tedious than I thought it would be. I practiced on the rudder before I started and I'm glad I did. There is nothing difficult about fiberglass, it just takes time to learn your own technique. I have glassed the bottom and hope to finish the sides next weekend. I recommend following the instructions in the video on how to fiberglass boats from Glen-L. When I started with the rudder I left my arms exposed while sanding. I will never do that again! Itch is the primary word here. Anyway, I learned a lesson and am moving forward. I'll just keep sanding, and sanding, and... Photos are attached of my Tango with bottom glassed. I am still having fun. I wish I had done this years ago.
