Skin-on-Frame: Advice on thread type...

Hey all,

Well, my Sea Tour 17R frame is done and it will soon be time to skin. I'm just curious, what type of thread you prefer to stitch the skin up with (8oz nylon)? Do I use the same type to sew the skin to my floating coaming as well?

Thanks in advance, and for all of the helpful tips that I find here every day!

-Matt
