Andy fits custom fiberglass framework into the transom area of a Bertram 25 to create drainage and support for a future hatch cover.2:28 He uses a belt sander to taper the bottom edges of the fiberglass components, ensuring they sit flush within the existing deck pockets.4:07 To reinforce the underside of these pockets and seal gaps, he applies small, frayed pieces of chopped strand mat saturated in epoxy, effectively paper-mashing the material to provide structural support.7:22 After allowing the epoxy to cure overnight, he trims the excess glass and prepares the remaining components for final installation.11:38 The project remains incomplete due to a power outage at the shop, which prevents further glassing and fairing work until the following week.18:15
