Strip: Night Heron: Attaching bow & stern
By:Jack Hawkins

I am about to put the hull and deck together and have a question about attaching the deck to the hull at the bow and stern points. When I glassed the inside of the deck, I glassed all the way up to the tip of the bow and stern. Now, my question is: should I plane away the glass on the deck inside bow & stern where the hull touches the deck to get a tighter fit? Do any Night Heron builders have any input on this? Thanks, Jack
