I wet the keel area with epoxy, then I added fiberglass strands, then more epoxy on top.

Cured

2 part Boat Epoxy and 404 High Density filler to make peanut butter. When it started to setup, I went back and smoothed it down with my finger for a nice transition. I'm going to drill two small drain holes in the bulkhead. No water will get trapped up in the front now.
