Oof- I’m sorry to hear that. I was supposed to be on a trip this week, but broke my hand a couple weeks ago and will be out of commission for a while. My situation is much more abbreviated than yours, but paddling, fishing, camping, anything that needs both hands is out. Of course I’m right...

Looking great! I love the color. Reminds me of British Racing Green. How many more coats? Do you seal the bottom side of the outwales against the canvas? Bob
