I tried this when I replaced my bulkheads:

I superglued a series of small wood stops in place to get the desired angle, and I sanded the deck-bulkhead till the fit was fine. Once there, I tacked the bulkhead to the "tabs" then glassed in tape all around in two days. After curing, I taped out the tabs, hand-sanded, then cast in tape on the opposite side. I've also used 3M adhesive for a temporary bulkhead placement right before a group of is paddled out to Snata Cruz island. I thought the adhesive would fail and I was much spooked that it would break but it was Sage's yak that was torpedoed-but that'sanother story. The point is that the 3M adhesive turned out to be permanent and a real bear to remove.

Pre-fitting and keeping a angled bulkhead has got to be one of the nastiest chores around.

: 1. Masking off. Filleting in such confined space is potentially messy. It was
: for me, anyway. Do as much masking as you can before starting. In my rush
: to tack the bulkhead into place, I forgot to mask off the bulkhead.
: Masking it in place is a pain that can easily be avoided.

: 2. Tacking first. Don't go for the full fillet on the first round. Use just
: three or four small dabs of thickened epoxy to tack the bulkhead into
: position. Once they're partially cured, you can remove whatever supports
: or temporary handles you used (if any) to hold the bulkhead in position,
: so they don't interfere with the filleting.

: For now, I've filletted the bulkhead, but haven't taped it. Assuming I will
: add a foot-pump at some point in future, is taping the joint advisable? It
: seems plenty rigid with just thickened epoxy. If tape is recommended,
: would it be more effective (ie. stronger) on the cockpit side of the
: bulkhead, or on the hatch side? I assume taping both sides would be
: overkill.
