Finally, after who knows how many yards of 12 oz. tape, below deck frames are done!

Visible gaps below frames were filled with thickened epoxy, allowed to cure green, then fillets were pulled with a 1" wide tongue depressors.

Holy cow, that's got to be nice to be looking back on! Once again, way to push through! Work looks great. Cleats and tubes will be a vacation!

Thanks, Dan. I was worried about the gaps, but got over it. Heavy fillets of wood flour and cabosil. Should be fine.
