A word to the wise re lonseal--I was thinking of this as a DIY project
initially. As I got further into the manuals about how to use the glue they
recommended, I bailed and had a yard do it.
Although lonseal claims you can use epoxy/West System, their own glue has a
maximum drying time of 30 minutes plus they recommended that their glue be
mixed all at once to insure the proper ratio.
Given the size and number of my sole boards, the yard put 2 workers on it and
barely got it done in the time limit(~30 minutes). Since the product itself
(Defender was least expensive) cost about 6 boat bucks, it was not something to
waste.
YMMV

Hi Edd,
As it turns out, the quote on the damage to Astralis from the jetski is now
just over $21,000 not including the dinghy, and the boat won't get in for
repair until the 29th.
During that time, I want them to redo the bottom and pull the forward sink
seacock that is frozen and glass over it. I plan on just having the forward
sink drain into the bilge or tee it off to the galley sink drain. I will also
have them replace the cutlass bearing.
So, it might make sense to use that time to bring all the boards home and apply
lonseal if I like it.
Might as well try to kill as many birds at one time as possible. :(
