Foot Braces and Finish Sanding — Two Mistakes Most Builders Make

Most builders rush the epoxy fill coat and pay for it later with a finish that never looks quite right. In this episode, Bob Emser shows the proper sanding sequence that makes the difference, plus a clever low-profile method for attaching foot braces that most builders overlook. Because sanding epoxy on a kayak is more than just a construction step. It's a quiet act of reflection a meditation on patience, imperfection, and transformation.
