Well, I'm building one, so I have to believe.  But the quality can vary greatly with the builder and how well the designer understands the use of epoxy.  IMHO, the Wharram I'm building relies too heavily on filling gaps with epoxy rather than making the pieces fit together well.  We'll see,  I guess it works, there are a lot of ocean crossings by these.

 

But for the alternative view on epoxy as an adhesive, see Larry Purdy's writings on it.
