Joe;
I used 1/4 inch luan for the bulkheads as I have tons of it left over from templates. I coated both sides with glass and epoxy. I also installed a foot pump; I put 1/4 inch Stainless bolts thru the luan before I glassed. Bulkheads are not something you want failing!
Good Luck,
Timothy Mulherin
