Dave,
I used a shear clamp on the Explorer hybrid. I glued mine to the assembled hull, then beveled it in place. I placed waxed paper over the clamp while stripping. I placed the first deck strip so that it hung over the hull about 1/4", then planed/sanded fair after gluing the halves together. The transition came out well. A layer of bias 'glass tape on the outside finished it up.
Hope this helps,
Steve
