Btw, you can't buy fabric woven on a bias, not available, no way to weave it, looms don't work that way.

We use fiberglass on a bias on kayaks often, but it's by laying the fiberglass diagonally onto the boat, it doesn't come that way.

I use a partial sheer strake so I don't tape the inside in those areas, I only tape the middle of the inside of the boat where it's easier to reach.
