: once? Any issues with getting the glass to conform to hull and
: coming without wrinkling? or should I trin the glass around the
: cockpit when I seal the deck, and glass the coming seperately?

Personally I prefer to do all glass work the easy way that minimizes problems, so I'd do the deck first then do the coaming riser later.
