: I just sanded the dried fillets, then fiberglassed over them. Not with tape,
: but while sheathing the intire inside.

: The fillets in the hull were strong enough to hold the shape of the kayak,
: while I built a deck on top of it, and then glassed the outside of the
: hull. after all this I finally got around to glassing the inside of the
: hull, over the fillets.

: however, I've yet to use the kayak, I'm confident it will be acceptable, but
: have not tested it yet.

We do this with strippers all the time.

Granted, the forces are somewhat more concentrated on a S&G chine than a strip-to-strip joint in a stripper, I still think all will be A-OK.

If this is a weak spot, I'll find out!!
