Andy Miller had to make another video this week to clarify the mess he made on his Bertram Moppie transom rebuild last week. He found himself with sagging thickened epoxy that didn’t stay as thick as he needed it to, sagging off the area needed and dripping down to make a sloppy mess of his repair. Andy uses his mistakes as a chance to thoughtfully explain how things went wrong, and how he made them right this time, giving us 5 tips for making sure your job doesn’t fail as his did. Tune in for more awesome advice from Andy and his Boatworks Today channel which is rich with tips and advice to help DOIY boaters do it right the first time. Or maybe the second time.
