covey island displays exemplary craftsmanship, how about posting the video of building the ribs for BLUENOSE II on your website, I saw it once, but have not been able to find it again. I believe you have your own special epoxy?. is that true and will you be making it available for sale

Below is a link to the LSA Youtube channel and a video that features a bit on the building of the frames.

There was a really great time-lapse video of the frame process that I'll try to track down and post a link to as well.

Hello David, welcome to the Forum. To answer your question on weather Covey developed and uses our own epoxy, we did help develop an epoxy formula many years ago with a company in Montreal. This epoxy eventually became known as East System and is still widely available through distribution and retail today. The company that manufactures and distributes East System today is Tri-Tex co inc. In recent years at Covey Island we use different epoxy resins based on the application, the designers specification, and owners preference. MAS epoxy has been used extensively on our most recent projects including Farfarer, Bluenose, Columbia and Seafaith.
Thanks,
Al
