Arne,
Yours looks great, probably turned out better than mine did. Is the picture you posted after the resin or after a coat of varnish?
The picture I posted was actually after my 2nd coat, it got glossier than that after the 3rd.

The picture is after the resin - no varnish yet. Unfortunately, it's been in the same condition for over a year now (no gunwales, no seats, etc.). Maybe next month. 80 deg F today! I'm starting to feel like winter maybe really gone! I've got the Kevlar for a new one, need to get the 'glass and epoxy for the next project. I should probably finish the Wee Lassie before I start a new Kevlar, but I've got additional interest - we're building 3 of them this time! groups.yahoo.com/group/KevlarCanoe/

Its off the forms ;D
I just had to snap a few photos while it was sitting in the yard.
Now the real fun has started the inner hull
After finishing the outer hull, its sad to look at all the work left inside

After a few days of scruding & sanding to fair up the inner hull, I am finally ready to glass the inside.
I layed out & cut the fabric to fit the night before, so I would be ready to wet out the glass with the epoxy resin in the morning.
The fabric is held up in place with some cloths pins.
;D ;D ;D FINALLY ;D ;D ;D
I got the inner hull glassed
The next morning after trimming the excess fabric
