Well took me a week but I was able to slowly chip away at the fillets. I got them all rounded and sanded on the inside. I’m waiting for a 1/2 hand held belt sander to get the out side done. I was going to get the cheap harbor freight one but went with the amazon one for the free shipping. I get it tomorrow. Sunday I had the morning to myself so I spent 4 hours tabbing in the inside of the stringers. I wanted the best bond to the transom so I but a layer covering the middle 1/3 of the transom. Then tabbed in the stringers and knees with three layers of 1708 tape. 8inch, 10 inch, 16 inch. All wet on wet. had a few hiccups but over all other then my back be sore it came out nice. Only Took one pic, had to take a break and stretch out a little.

They are far from done I need to put a waterproofing layer from the tabbing up and then a cap. I’ll use 1708 from the tabbing to the top and then I have some 6oz cloth for the top waterproofing layer.
