Strip: Hybrid Night Heron shear clamps?

Hi again,

Building my first child and i'm noticing some hybrids use a shear clamp and others don't. I don't see any mention of one in my plans, but does anyone know if the Hybrid Night Heron uses a shear clamp? It seems a bit crazy to attempt to attach the hull and deck at such a small edge if you don't use a shear clamp, but it must work somehow. Thoughts?

Thanks,

Damian
