: I will be joining the hull and deck on my second boat in a few

: first boat, I did the hot glue dots every 6 inches or so. Worked
: well, but I did get small lumps in the tape where the hot glue
: was placed, small thing but they bothered me. I occurred to me
: that I only need to hot glue the tape where I can't reach it,
: which happens to be where I will never see it either. I am going
: to try it that way.
