: Bill,
: Don't know what Pygmy kayaks you have seen but I have a Coho. The inside of
: my multichine hull has 6 oz. glass all the way to the sheer, stem to stern
: with the exception of about 2" on each side in the cockpit area (at
: the sheer) because the 38" glass is not wide enough to completely
: cover the widest area of the hull. The inside of the deck has a fillet and
: 2"glass tape, the full length of every one of the multichine seams.
: The outside deck and hull are fully glassed with 6oz. glass.

: Larry C.

I am amazed to hear that 38" glass left a 2" gap at each side on a boat
with a 23" beam.
My pygmy double, with a beam of 30", has no such gaps. I don't think I had
1/4" to spare at the widest part, but everything got covered.

Interesting.
