Make sure you have a good radius on any corners. A minimum of 1/8" radius is necessary to let the bias-cut glass conform. A larger radius is easier.

Glass is not required on the lip, though it is a good idea. You should glass the inside of the coaming.

Try sanding the transition between the deck and the coaming more to ease the corner. Use fairly wide strips of bias-cut glass (3 or 4 inches). It should not be that hard to make the glass conform.
