Great ideas. I'm going to have to do some staining prior to appying epoxy. The anchor had had quite a bit of time to remove wood. Do you think the epoxy will still stick over the oil-based filler stain?

This summer I replaced the transom of our 45' 1960 Constellation. Good results.

The old material is essentially a 1/2" "U" that has a 1/4" skirt that overlaps the outer rim of the hatch seat. The "...

I have a Constellation that is in need of the same stuff.

Not sure of the correct terminology - but, I need info on replacing the cabin roof outer/top "skin". Mine was separating and had cracks permitting moisture to wick underneath. This afternoon I removed it. There wasn't much holding it in place. The orignial material is cotton fabric attached with som...
