Glue the wooden parts of your boat together and then make your boat virtually maintenance free by epoxy coating it. This epoxy is used for gluing the wood, laminates and fillets as well as for coating wooden parts when building a boat from one of our kits. We recommend the use of this solvent free epoxy for building boat at home.

Professional Epoxy Coatings is included in the kits but, for non-kit builders, it is available separately. Select the correct size if you are building your boat from scratch or are repairing.
