Here are some pics from yesterday. I set the stringers up yesterday and glued them today. Notice on my inner skin on my transom the dark color glass in the middle where the motor mounts, thats because a guy off the HULL TRUTH recomended me to put that 2 layer of 1708 patch there for load purposes. I still have one more layer of 1708 to put on the transom but im gonna wait till I glass the stringers to the transom first so the last layer of 1708 kinda locks the stringer tabs in. The last picture is of the resin soaked dowels I put through my all-thread holes that I used to clamp my plywood. My next step is to glue and screw my stringer cleats on then glass in my stringers!!!!! fun fun fun!!!

Keep up the good work
Kracker:
Can't see in your lastest pics, but I assume you have weep holes aft to allow and water to drain the the garboard plug? It also looks like your center stringer aft 90 is solid. You might want to notch the corner so water can drain from either side "JUST IN CASE" Keep up the good work! Kamikaze

Kamikaze I forgot to cut my 1/4 circles in my main at the transom. I glued them down and 20 minutes later I had a ahh **** moment!!!! I'm gonna end up cutting them with my rotoo zip tool on Thursday then glass a small strip of 1.5 csm on under edge to water proof. Thanks for looking out.

This question is for all you structual guys on here. I was thinking about returning my glass over my cap and tie it into the outside hull down the side about 2 or 3 inches. Is this a wise move? there is a reason why factory did not glass the insert or cap or guwals to the side of the boat. I personally think if I glass the cap in this manner to the side of the boat it will be a constant flex and crack issue ultimately leading to an astetic eye sore . Any opinions would be awesome. As you can see in the picture my cap is made of wood which Im gonna laminate a nother piece of 3/4 acx to to beef it up. Im then going to band the inside edge and outside edge with 3/8 acx router all edges and then glass with 2 layers of 1.5 csm. would this be a proper schedule for this application or should I go with one layer of 1708?
