Hello All,
I am needing to do a rebuild of the floor, bow seats, and console in my Bluefin tinny. After reading many posts on here, I plan on using 1/2 inch exterior plywood coated in epoxy. I plan on removing all of the poured foam and replace with blue foam pieces. Then laying marine carpet. Here are my questions.....
1.)How long does it take the epoxy to dry?
2.)I assume that I don't need to use any fiberglass, just coat with epoxy?
3.)If I use the same plywood on the console, do I coat that with epoxy as well?
4.)Is 1/2 ply enough or do I need 3/4
5.)When building the console and seats, is brass screws the way to go, using strips of square wood stock to screw into on corners?
Thanks in advance.
