Would it Float? Yes!

Started getting progress made again. I have pretty much all the cracks and holes filled now, and have been continuing to sand. And sand.

I ordered the xynole cloth today to skin the hull with for abrasion resistence and final water tight layer. I've got to order a boat load (pun intended) of epoxy to wet it out. I'm told the xynole uses much more epoxy to wet out than the fiberglass cloth, but it will wind up being the equivalent of 2-3 times an equal weight of fiberglass in strenght/abraision resistence.

Wanted to get a couple of pictures of the status as things stand now:
