>>>>>>>>Does the kit come with fiberglass for the deck or is that an extra? If so - is this 4oz or 6oz?


:>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

4oz deck 'glass is standard in the kit.

>>>>>>>>>>>>> Does the kit come with complete rigging for the deck line and the bungies?


:>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Standard in the kit is 20 feet of bungie, plus webbing and fasteners to hold it in place.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>> How much varnish is generally used - is a quart enough?


:>>>>>>>>>>>>>

On a 14, a quart ought to just do three coats on the hull and deck.

>>>>>>>>>>>>> CLC has (or had) something they called a "racing option" which was all 3mm plywood and 4oz fiberglass.


:>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.

The Ch14 has 3mm sides and a 3mm deck. The specified weight anticipates the standard 6oz fabric on the sides and bottom of the hull, and 4oz fabric on the deck.
