: Hi!

: My Igdlorssuit is nearing the time for assembling of deck and hull. As I have
: lowered the reardeck there is no way of adding glasstape to the inside of
: the joint. I have added an extra strip giving me a face of app. 12 mm for
: aplying thickened epoxy to. Then there will only be tape on the outside.
: Is the 12 mm wide surface enough??

I usually use two strips for the sheerclamp (about 15 mm including the hull thickness)
