We worked on touching up the hull today and building the elevators and float attachments.
The hull had some small gaps in the corners that we filled with West Epoxy Adhesive 610.
The thinking there is that water could get in the crevices and damage the hull if it froze. Someone on the STS
site thought that may have happened to them.
We also applied some West 105/206 Epoxy resin to some interior areas of the hull that had chips or dents
or needed some filler.

Keep track of the inboard and outboard sides of the elevator.
