Thanks, Bruce, for the lenghthy and detailed reply, much
appriciated

I need to work out which product to go with I suppose. I was looking
at this on eBay:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Epoxy-Resin-Ha...item334f06460f

How suitable would that be for my application? If not, that seller has
a "resin shop", can you see anything in his shop that would do the
job? Or if i go with a gelcaot, he has that too:

Thanks again

Resin is more expensive than paint and as I noted before, guarantee you
will have rot soon. IIRC you built a small plywood boat from cheap
exterior ply? If this is the case, go to home depot and get some good
(not latex) exterior paint, even from the screwup bin a color you like
and paint the boat. It's crazy to go with gelcoat or similar on a small
boat and spend more painting it than you spent building it...
