: I'm getting real close to joining deck to hull on my petrel and i'm
: getting anxious. I was wondering if I can skip a step by just
: coating hatch edges w/ epoxy instead of glassing them. Has
: anyone done this with good results or am I asking for trouble
: down the road?

I was not aware that anyone glassed hatch edges. I have never done it and never had any problems. I just ensure a good coatings of epoxy.
