: Thank you for responding. I guess "ridge" is the word (I apologize
: my not so good english). there are no gaps between strips on the outside.
: As I said in my posting I use straight edge strips, and my theory is: I
: have overbeveled the strips in some places, with contact on the outside
: and a small gap on the inside. The unsealed wood on the inside, has during
: the winter been exposed to changing temp. and humidity, and that has
: caused the strips to twist/shift in some places. (Because of the small gap
: on the inside, it had room to shift)
: I don't think these problems will affect the characteristics of the boat
: much, but my worry is that it will be difficult to sand over these ridges
: without sanding down to or thru the glass.
: So.. I'm hoping for a good advice from this fantastic forum, you people have
: already given me loads of help and information.

: thanks

We did our deck the same way but glassed the inside without waiting,no ridges. I would think you are going to have to live with them or remove the glass and refair the strips. Before removing the glass I would fair the in side and then fill the gaps in the strips with thicken epxoy to bond the strips together. I personaly would just procced and finish the kayak if they are not to bad and go paddle.
