This week we're going to show you how we remove the temporary fastening used to secure the second layer of planking and use those same holes for our final fastenings. This way we can bury all our screws into both layers, after they've been glued togethere, with no risk of splitting the ends of the bottom planking or breaking off any screws. Once all our screws our sunk, we are going to fill the holes with TotalFair, a 1-1 Epoxy Fairing Compound from TotalBoat. We're now all ready to put our final layers of fiberglass on the bottom and then we can flip the boat over.
