HI Guys
I have replaced my transom and my stringers and I started the glassing in stage. I have one layer of mat on the transom and stringers and then IT RAINED..... Water crept into the vents and down into the bilge and I had not drilled my holes through the stringers yet. Water made its way in between the curred mat and now I have a milkey look. So am I worring for nothing or do I need to begin again.

Here is my progress so far, there is lots of photos on the thread

look at the brightside you only have one layer of mat down, the water will act like a mould release any areas that are milky are not bonded, i agree with jimslade get out the grinder. do you have a shop jim in markham

I just sold my property and am in the middle of building a house and shop in north Pickering. I'm still finishing of jobs at my shop. The price's went to high for me not to sell. I have 5 acres and am moving to 12. Hoping for a Big shop, up from 3000 sq. ft. I also want to get into boat storage.
