Front Seat Boxes Epoxied Onto Bottom



Today, I epoxied the front seat boxes down to the bottom of the boat. The right one had somewhat had the rear part move in, so I took a 2x4 and put in there to keep it spread to the right size until the epoxy cures. I will also put down fiberglass tape on the exterior to strength it up, before I remove the 2x4.
Before I epoxied them down, I took four small 3/4" stainless steel nails and put them at the back of where the seat boxes should be, so they couldn't move rearward when I put them down. These nails will be filleted over tomorrow, along with the 3" fiberglass tape. You can see the nail in the upper right photo if you look close.
