Brave soul wetting out two layers at once.
How long did you let the carbon cure before releasing from the plug? (~48 hrs? a day for carbon and a day for glass)
Looking really good from the pics, and 17 lbs sounds pretty good for the full hull with sealed stems.
Hindsight being 20/20, do you think it's possible to glass the plug first then lay the carbon from inside once glass hull is off the plug and fully cured? Would the glass even be stiff enough to release before fully cured? I'm thinking it'd be easier to conform the glass to the hard edges/contours (but probably wouldn't be any less work/time)
I admire you skill set of working with composites!
