Congratulations, that's a great article, I mean in your blog, clear and very informative. I have learned one or two things. Didn't know about the thermal problems with the epoxy resins...and that suggestion of a finish in light colors makes a lot of sense. I have seen that many times epoxy boats have light colors (the Hanse for example) but I didn't know there was a reason behind it, other than aesthetics.
