Looks really good.......you're going to need to grind the sides of the gunwales as well to allow you to wrap around each layer of glass for the inner skin.....probably 4 to 5 layers with a 2 or 3 inch progressive overlap on each layer...you want the same total skin thickness or a little more than the original. Also once you get the core in place, make nice fillets around the perimeter with epoxy putty and then tab the perimeter with a few layers of 6 inch tape, then put on your full sheets over everything.
