Thanks Ann-Sofie, A helpful article. When I first read it I had not realised the oven you bought was electric. I think I shall keep the electric oven for now but change over to induction plates for

I believe the application method is not relevant to number of hulls, or boat manufacturer, as long as the yard is familiar with fiberglass/gelcoat hulls.... ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

Thank you Matt, I spoke to Jim Edwards at the Annapolis sailboat show. He pointed us to Cape Canaveral Ship Yard Scorpion aka "Port Canaveral Marine"

The US CopperCoat supplier is in Melbourne, FL. His name is Jim Edwards. I’m sure you can find his email address on the CC site. Ask him. He’ll know for sure, as he loathes warranty calls due to

Thanks for all of the recommendations and feedback. I will add a spool of 18 guage, 2 wire tinned copper oval jacketed wire to my spares. I already have some of the 22 guage shielded, and some 16*4

Arthur, I had the same leak and if it is coming from where there shifter shaft enters the transmission it is an easy fix as well. I drained the fluid from the bottom drain plug then undid the one bolt

Shielded wire is great for electronics to prevent stray EMI issues. Not so critical for lighting, but still nice to have. ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

True, 18 gauge wire may be bigger than necessary, but I find it more robust, resisting breakage better than thinner wire, especially routing through difficult spaces. My 2¢, and your results may
