The reason I suggested doing it in this order is so you don't drip all over the deck when you are glassing the hull. However, you can also shove a wax paper between the deck and the hull so it hangs down to protect the deck.

The end result is the same either way. Do what you feel comfortable with.

: I have a stripped, planed, fared and sanded Guillemot in my garage that's
: ready to be glassed. I'm unsure of what to do next. Nick says in his book
: to seal coat the deck and take it off so the insides can be scraped and
: sanded. I've done it by the book so far and it's not let me down but I'm
: afraid the deck will distort if I do it that way. I was thinking of seal
: coating the deck...flip it over still on the forms then seal and glass the
: hull then glass the deck before I take it off the forms. Does that make
: sense?
