Looks beautiful!

What was that first layer of yellowish stuff in the mold on the first day? Was that just gel coat, or also a thin layer of glass for surface finish?

Here are some shots of the hull and deck happy as one unit. The hull & deck have been glassed from the inside and outside, and the putty has been applied.
