: I followed Nick's advice and used a rolling bevel (removing the bead and
: leaving the cove). It being my first one, I doubt that it's as good as it
: could be, but there was a recent discussion addressing this. After both
: hull and deck are stripped and glassed you can do some minor adjustments
: to how they meet.

: I started my Night Heron about 6 weeks ago, and I'm nearly done with the
: stripping. The only extra bit of advice I wish I'd had back then was to
: buy and use a heat gun (you may already have one - I do now ).

Here is Nick's post on this subject - It was very helpful for me ...
