Same problem here. Started making some boat modifications and repairs yesterday. Now I need some dry weather to do the glassing...fat chance from what I have seen of the weather forecast..

 

I left the wood I was going to glass in outside last night and I guess its not best to be bonding in soaking wet timber. Never mind it looks like we have a better week coming up if this wind ever stops from the north
