Epoxy for Ches 17

Posted by Dave Matthews on Jan 23, 2005

How much epoxy is actually required for a Ches 17?

A friend is going to build one from my plans (yes, he is sending a check) and needs to order his epoxy. I am guessing about 1 1/2 gal of resing/hardener should do it. He is going wiht 6oz hull outside and deck. Also 6oz inside the cockpit. I had some left over and bought some for another project so I don't know what I really needed.

This is getting rid of the extra okume and foot pegs that I bought when I build mine. I was going to do one for my wife too. She decided that she wanted a solo canoe so I have to build an Osprey stripper for her.
