: Not to hijack this thread but I could not notice you glass booth
: the out side and inside of your hull before starting on the
: deck. Are their any advantages to this (stiffer, hull acts like
: it's own strong back)? Or is the way I am going about it dumb:
: -build the hull
: -glass the out side of the hull
: -flip the hull over
: -knock the forms loose and re tack them using the old hot melt glue
: as a positioning guide
: -build the deck - where I am now
: -glass the deck
: -crack it in half and clean-up and glass the inside of booth
: -try and get them realigned and glue them together.

Hi Jason,
I only try and lock out any change in moisture content in the wood by glassing both inside and out, asap.A change in moisture also changes the hull's dimensions,which is just another issue to keep in control.Stripping the deck might take you into another season.This can be sorted if needed with extra water sponged on or some drying out before sealing the "inside"
