COMMENTS: Before you start any construction, Please Read The Entire Instruction
            Manual To Acquaint Yourself With The Building Sequence Of This Kit.
          Duco Cement: This is used to adhere plastic to stplasticyrene.  It
            sets up fast, but requires at least over night to cure thoroughly.
            (purchase at a hardware store)
          Silicone: This is used to seal all seams where there is the
            possibility of water seeping in.  It is also recommended to use
            Non-Corrosive Ultra-Gray RTV Silicone by Permatex.  Any gasket
            style silicone will work, but make sure it is Non-Corrosive.  A
            large selection can be found at an automotive store.
          Wood display stand shown with boat is not included.
