This makes sense. Thank you. Unfortunately I failed to use any spacers, so I think I am going to have to cut off and grind away my under-deck lip, and make a new one with spacers. By the way, it was very difficult to wrap this lip with fiberglass and have the cloth wet out flat, without folds and bubbles. Do you bother separately applying glass to this or just paint it with epoxy directly over the wood? I was thinking of re-doing it using 1/4 inch plywood lip and a 1/8 inch spacer to allow for the gasket, then no glass on the lip. Thanks again for the clear diagram. Jay
