Kept drilling with larger and larger bit, making adjustments along the way.

Repair screwup on starboard door 1.
Repair screwup on starboard door 1.
Began fitting starboard door yesterday, after getting hinge tangs and top of door to fit OK, noticed that when Richie sanded off the gelcoat, he sanded right through the glass in 3 areas on the starboard door and breached it in the very corner. Thus when you push on the outside portion of the door in these areas, the outside of the door is not attached to the inside of the door.
Repair, (that I will challenge when cured), is milled glass fibers and Aeropoxy/30 minute troweled on leaving a 45 degree fillet remaining. Boy is milled glass heavy compared to flox, but stronger, probably harder to sand and will puncture skin according to ACS, (it is milled very fine). These 3 areas repaired were small and only weighed in at a few tenths of an ounce.
