In Response To: Strip: Glassing deck (Ryan Scott)

I will second what Roger said: this method makes sense and is the standard on Pygmy boats. John Lockwood of Pygmy has been in the business for a long time, knows what he's doing and it shows when it comes to the boats and construction techniques.

: I am currently building a guillemot and would like some other views. I have
: finished glassing the hull, separated deck and hull and glassed the inside
: of the deck. I am thinking that I will glass the outside of the deck and
: overlay the shear strips with a couple of inches glass instead of glassing
: the deck than connecting the two with a 2 inch strip of glass.
: Any thought on this methods would be appreciated.
