    WIll the launch at hothole be open?

    its 'unmanned', don't see why they would need to. The state park is close enough too but I guess that would be hit as well.

    fx1 foothold/turf job.

    after glassing the edges and sanding smooth. I layed a couple of plys of cloth over the entire tray sealed over the pump mount inserts with duct tape and glassed right over.. (figure its easy enough to cut open if I ever need to replace the inserts..)

    foothold install update / questions!!

    "low temp" for epoxy means like 50's not 20's... The dap contact cement for the turf also wants to be real warm (I think they say keep at 70+ for 24 hrs ..) ..ant I'll say from experience if epoxy sets part way and doesn't harden you have a real gooey mess to clean up and start over.
