Strip: Cockpit Rise Height

I am just getting ready to rebuild my cockpit coaming. I'll be going with a built-up glass affair using foam as the form. I want my coaming as low as possible to help with layback rolls. I'm thinking that 3/4" is enough under the lip (deck to underside of lip height" Anybody go any less than 3/4"? See any problems with this?
