Thank again Rob,

One clarification, are you using the thickened (I assume really thick so it stays put) epoxy to tack the deck and hull together at both ends before the rest of the seam is done? This sounds like a good idea, but, I want to make sure I'm clear.

Thanks

Best to pre-coat the 6" seam edges and everything else in the stems ONCE AGAIN with unthickened epoxy, while you can reach this area.

Then yes, apply some peanut butter thick epoxy before taping closed.
