I built a 16 lt with west system epoxy. I am starting an annapolis wherry soon and also plan on using west just because I am used to it. Any objections

On my chesapeake 17LT build I used Mas and West. They both seem very good.
I have no preference at this moment for one vs the other.

I went to this site before settling on which epoxy to use:
[http://oneoceankayaks.com/Epoxtest.htm](http://oneoceankayaks.com/Epoxtest.htm)
Helps that CLC sells MAS, as they and Raka 127 scored the highest (for long term durability/lack of discoloring). Given the choice, I'd choose MAS over West System, but I'm sure many are happy with the WS results.
Good luck,
Larry
