After reading all of this, I still prefer a butt joint, and I don't use B&C strips either. Cut them with a pull saw in a cheap miter box, works perfectly every time and takes no extra time. While there is strength in the wood of the boat, the butt joints don't line up, so the strength is carried by the strips neighbors. I often use a hot glue backer on the joint to hold everything lined up until the boat is stripped, then they are easily popped off from the inside.
