Glassing on our Catamaran Bows - After I Clean Up a TOUGH MISTAKE (MJ Sailing - Ep 361)

We’ve got both bows bonded onto our catamaran now, but before we can start glassing them in place, we run into a tough—and time-consuming—setback.
While the methacrylate cured between the flange and the bow, it expanded more than expected, leaving hardened ridges that now need to be ground down before we can move forward. So Jessica spends the day in tight quarters with the belt sander, clearing the way for fiberglass work on the interior seams.
Once that’s sorted, Matt begins glassing the exterior—two layers of 12 oz cloth laid top to bottom, sealed in with resin and peel ply for a strong, smooth finish. Bit by bit, we’re locking these bows in place for good.
Thanks for watching and supporting our build—one layer at a time!

MJ Sailing
Sailing the world to see the world! We're a couple of high school sweethearts in our late 30's that have been on the move for 9 years; creating videos of the ups, the downs, our triumphs and our trials. After circumnavigating the North Atlantic in our last boat Serendipity, (1989 Sabre Targa 34), we took on a 2 year complete refit of our new boat Elements of Life - a custom aluminum 37' monohull. After sailing her to the Arctic, we sold her in 2020 to begin our newest project of building a 42 ft catamaran. Check out our website for more information, and support us by subscribing to our channel and liking our videos.
