The day after we cooled the steaming ends of our poor pollacked boat off, I called the experts and found out that an end pour bears that name because, in actual practice, most kayak builders literally stand the boat up on its end to get the correct angle to epoxy the panels and shear clamps solidly together at the ends. This made complete sense to us, at last, and we started to plot a way to get our boat up on end. Our garage is not especially tall and since it existed in a previous life as an octagonal motorcycle club house, it has some very unique interior construction. We hoisted it up as far as we could into the rafters and completed the end pour in the bow.
