Boat split!!!

[ek kustomz]

Well tried to run it today again and see if I could get it tuned and...ooops. I when I picked the boat up the nose of the boat came loose. So what do I do now?? Can i just let it dry and epoxy it back?? Not quite sure what to do.

Thansk Guys,

Just wondering , what type of glue did you use ?

Let others know so they won't have the same bad luck.

Did you sand the lazer burn off the kit pannel before you glued..?

when they lazer cut the boat kit parts , it closes the pours in the timber so the expoy cant penetrate ..

you need to sand this lazer cut off before you glue to get a bullet proof hull.

id dry it off , sand off a little of the edges and glue it back down with west system and a little dab of micro ballons.

Peter at Climate built that boat. I would let it dry then lightly sand the areas to be bonded and re epoxy with a quality epoxy like West systems.
