#6 is pre-coated

After some snafu with sanding pads having the wrong side of the velcro glued to them (we dont mention names, do we Frode?) and other fun mishaps, #6 is now ready for glassing. Tonight I put on a layer of epoxy as a pre-coat before glassing. About 60 grams of epoxy was neccesary to cover the whole hull with a thin layer.

I also cast the first end-plug for the beam mould. 260grams of epoxy mixed at 50% with chopped glass should do the trick at 2 bar.
