Ruth takes over fiberglass layup on the George Buehler 35 Red Aviva's side decks while Garrett builds a pilot house mock-up from construction-grade plywood.▶ 0:34 Ruth lays biaxial fiberglass cloth on the deck, cutting it to achieve four-inch overlaps past the cabin wall and working around the mizzenmast and fuel fill, which will be re-drilled after glassing.▶ 1:07 She orients the cloth matte-side up to ease fairing later.▶ 2:34 Garrett dry-fits and secures the aft hatch with Sikaflex, cutting the back edge flush to the frame to allow for deck hinges, with the inner lip and gasket deferred until the boat is floating.▶ 5:44 The pilot house mock-up tests two face configurations — a three-faceted port side and a five-faceted starboard — and the three-faceted design wins.▶ 12:37 Garrett then cuts the port sidewall pattern from three-quarter exterior plywood, which he describes as "marinized" rather than marine-grade: exterior-glue ply filled and sheathed in epoxy and fiberglass, using filleted seams rather than tight-fit joinery, the same method used to build their dinghy.▶ 20:05 The walls will be three-quarter ply; the crowned top will be two layers of quarter-inch.▶ 16:45 Exterior-grade glue in construction plywood, combined with epoxy fillets and fiberglass, is presented as a practical substitute for marine plywood when supply is limited.
