I am 37, but have only worked with epoxy for the last 9 years. Thanks for the notes on total body exposure. I think you are very right and that we dont treat this chemical with enough respect. I am going to stock up on those disposable tyvek suits and put on "the mask" before opening the epoxy storage cabinet from now on. Earlier I have only used a mask when sanding epoxy or otherwise creating lots of dust. Ref: http://bp3.blogger.com/_rNx45wUDTHc/R3wJ8DtZ7jI/AAAAAAAAADU/FVtNvYmUOkM/s1600-h/dewaltfirstrun.jpg

Dont think I want to tempt fate and expose myself to your test <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Would have the creeps constantly while the band aid was on..

Sorry to hear that you might have crossed the threshold and might have to stay away from epoxy! Please post some pictures of your trimaran with a few words on it. We all have dreams, and I dream about a 28 foot trimaran one day and what could be done with the right boat.
