Today's work went really well. We got 100% of all the wood out of the transom without poking a single hole in the skin. Shop vac worked great at keeping it clean so we could see. Right now I'm ready for glass build up of transom. One question for the glass experts.

I have several small week spots and holes in the inner skin under the deck where the stringers meet the transom. I need to glass these holes as well as glass the stringers to the transom as discussed before. The spec. for the build up on the transom is for 1-1/2 oz mat/Woven roving/1-1/2 oz mat. Do I resin all three while all three are still wet or do I let each one dry first?
Also on the inner skin, do I use a heavier mat like 6 oz to connect the transom to the stringers? Seems like that 1-1/2 oz stuff is kind of thin.
I would think I would want the heavyest mat I can put on this thing. I understand the lightweight stuff for the build up as it will have a finer finish as well as thickness with the woven roving.
Any thoughts?
