I built a Night Heron S&G and used CA (super glue) glue to join the panels on the deck. It worked well for this particular design but takes a bit of patience and time. There were some areas that took harder bends and it took more spot welds than others. I used the medium thickness glue and an accelerator that I purchased at a local hobby store. I would hold the panels together and apply about a 1/2" long bead of glue to the seam and then spray the accelerator, hold the panel for about a minute while the glue set and then move up to the next spot. When all the panels were glued together and I was pleased with the fit I applied epoxy to all the seams. I would do this again if I were to build another S&G kayak.
