ADDENDA / SUBSTITUTIONS

Revised Supply List:

Substitutions:
Adhesives and sealants have changed and improved.  Check here for a convenient (but not all-inclusive) list of substitutions.


Instead of this...

White glue

Clear Firzite

...use this.

Titebond III Waterproof Glue (see note 1)

Smith's Clear Penetrating Epoxy Sealer (CPES)
Notes:
1.  For critical joints such as frames, bottom, transom and stem to sides, keel and centerboard trunk to bottom, breast hook, quarter-knees and seats to sides, a strong epoxy with gap-filling additive can be used.  For areas which you wish to minimize squeeze-out and where you need a permanent, strong and waterproof bond (such as frame gussets to frames), PL Premium (polyurethane) Construction Adhesive can be used.
