In Response To: Strip: When to cut out the cockpit? (Rick Sylvia)

Rick-
I can't speak as any kind of authority but I'm going to glass the deck inside and out before I cut out the cockpit on my Night Heron, in large part because the (unglassed) deck seems awfully fragile right now. I have glass on the outside of the hull and it's incredible how much tougher it feels.
