: I've never had that problem either, it's a resin problem, some soften at
: lower temperatures than others.

Actually, I'm a little surprised to hear of the problem. Seems to me that it wouldn't be a problem with the resin's we commonly use ... if the lay-up was done properly, has fully cured and the coaming is 1/8 inch thick or so. I wouldn't expect to see softening on the water. But ... well ... in theory ... maybe it could soften up a tad if you're car topping in Death Valley ...
