Andrew,
Thanks for your experiences, tips and struggle. I am about a month away from
skinning my boat and I appreciate your insights. I too am using Brinick's
book. Where did you get the hapralon and if you don't mind what was the
cost? Why that choice of material?
I have been planning on using Thompsons water seal, any feedback welcomed.
Again thanks,
