thanks for that Jim it certainly helps. I have limited glass epoxy experience but am learning all the time with the 16 footer. Im based in the UK and have tried a few different fabrics and same as you ended up with variable results. We are learning on the quattro before we move on to bigger fish hopefully ending up with a Rhea to go cruise the world(oops gotta get out of dream mode). Once again thanks for your input and anybody else who has experience I would love to hear of it.
cheers
Jay
