That’s weird about the beam falling off like that. What part of the cabin top was gummy? Is there balsa core there?
Are you sure it was moisture that caused the epoxy on the deck to not set up right? The only time I’ve had epoxy not set up was when I got the mix of hardener to resin wrong.
Don’t despair! You’re making good progress!

Keep your head up Jordon. Things wil come together. Some times when i would work on my boat things would seem to go from bad to worse. Or a simple project would turn into a major one. What i would do it take a step back leave it alone for a day or two and then get back at it.
Things are looking better on the boat every time i watch your Video clips. It all takes time. It won’t be long and you will be in the Sea of Cortez. thats when it will be all worth the effort. You always amaze me with the way you face your challenges.

Like Kristin sail , Don’t Despair! Off course your going to screw up! Everyone does. It’s called learning the trade. With these two mistakes you learned two valuable lessons, 1. epoxy is only as strong as the substrate! 2. Cover at night dew can mess things up, and make sure your mixtures are correct. So time away will make it better.
