i agree with geo....i'm useing the dry-wall tape for many reasons hereare a few.
1: it dosen't have the word "marine" in it making an additonal $15-20 right off the bat.
2: i realize maybe stength-wise not the "best" but for abrasion resistance on the joints, perfect. i was told, by more than one source,the old clc boats were simply edge glued. the plywood has enough stength by itself. also, what you don't see here is that i glassed the ever-livn' crap out of the inside. ( fist time builder mistake. )
3: the realitive ease of its use....very neat and clean.
i let every one here know how it holds up;but, so far i'm happy.
salute
