: First off, I used the term "fill coats" to describe the adding of
: resin AFTER the
: glass to smooth the surface. Not the resin coat on the raw wood to promote
: adhesion.

my mistake, should have read
assuming that you do the fiberglass in the standard order (outside hull, inside hull , outside deck, inside deck) you should have to start the bagging with the forms still inside. I would imagine that the _saturation_ coat will deal with most of the pinhole leak issues. if not you should be able to stop the ingassing with something like saran wrap (tm), especially if you think ahead and station the forms a saran wrap's width apart.
