Oh, neat-o! The kayaks sound nice
Years and years ago, one of my first experiences with fiberglassing was building a cedar strip canoe in a class and then glassing the outside. Around ten of us took the class, built the canoe, and then it was
sold to pay for the class/materials. It was a neat experience.
My first "very own" experience was sheathing a ply/epoxy boat - I, too, used System Three for that. Man, that was NOT fun work: I had set aside one specific three-day weekend to do it on, and that weekend just decided it
had to be in the 90s all weekend (which is really, really unusual up north where I was living). Man, I bet I lost 20 pounds just from being suited up all weekend sanding and glassing. Was I ever glad to get
that done.
Sounds like you've got the best of both worlds now: You understand the process.... but don't have to actually do it
