Today work on the boat started off with cleaning the shop.  The floors were swept and the benches were cleared because it was the day to start fibreglassing.  After a final wipe down with a rag fibreglass cloth was rolled over the entire length of the boat.  The overhang on the ends were trimmed and a plastic drop cloth was laid on the floor to catch drips.  With Martins dad mixing the resin and hardener, Martin and I first brushed on the resin then went along with a plastic spreader and smoothed the whole thing down, removing excess resin as we went.  Tomorrow Martin will apply two more coats of resin with a sanding in between each will be applied.
