Making progress, injuries aside. Just don't hurt yourself more, to get the boat done, else you won't be able to drive it. I admit I'm eager to see that thing in paint, but not if it means surgery.

Thank You and you are both correct!
I'm not going at it full speed. I just filled that hole and three spots I wasn't quite happy about. I used the rest on the opposite side at transom. That's it for today. I'm not wanting the wrist to swell up again. What ever i did to cause it I don't want to repeat. It takes a lot to put tears in my eye and that's how most of last week was by 10 pm.
Low spots behind strakes filled.
Lows under spray rail. I thought this was filled but I didn't like it.
Leftover of a 30 grams batch. By putting it here I have to stop today. I built in this "safety" because I know my nature.
I do have a question. When I was fairing the bottom, I stood on tables. In doing so my shoes have left a "scuff line" on the side panels I'n about to start fairing. Is it alright to use Dawn detergent to wash this off? I'm concerned with oil from my shoes being on the hull.
Re: Eric's C21
Eric, if you don't hear back from a more experienced builder than me tonight, I will get Jamie to respond to you tomorrow. I think the use of Dawn is fine!!! Jeff
Re: Eric's C21
Dawn works fine. Used it when I rebuilt our Mirror Dingy. Just rinse if off well of course.

Re: Eric's C21
Eric, glad Tom got back to you!! Dawn always does a great job!! Jeff
Re: Eric's C21
Here is a picture of the smudge my shoes left. It's the dark line about six inches under the trim line. First thing today I'll be scrubbing this off.
Feeling pretty good today!! The Shifting of the tables! 4/26/2017
The hull is halfway faired!!
Superfluous Glamour shot! There should be pipes and drums playing.
