    No.
    There's nothing more expensive than a "free" boat.

    from left field..
    Lefty's comment about charcoal made me think of this..My kid and I built a Banks Dory last summer and we set up the building frame/strongback in the driveway. We used a lot of white oak and we glued it all with Titebond3. We also used afair amount of Googe Bros. epoxy. At the end of the build the outline of the boat was clearly visible on the driveway; loads of glue drips and blobs.

    As of this summer all or most of the epoxy has come off while the TB3 is still there, solid and stuck fast. The asphalt was sealed with big box latex sealer the year before the build. I dont know if that has anything to do with the glue bond but I'm mighty impressed with the tenacity of the TB3.

    It still won't stick to epoxy though....
