Today I unpacked 1x1 yard piece of fiberglass cloth I purchased at Home Depot. I cut it in three strips (12",11",11") and use it to lay extra fiberglass on the bottom of the boat. I also used additional scraps on the bow edge and a scap 2" piece on the stern. I glassed the whole mess over to make my boat stronger.

I'm going on a hockey trip until Monday. The hull will cure and dry completely. When I come back I will sand the whole thing meticulously before I apply fill coat over the entire thing. Then I will see whether I need another fill coat. If not I will finally flip the wherry over and start working on the inside.

Thanks to all the folks helping me along with this. I'm going to miss you for these 3 days I'm gone.
