I'm about to start on sorting out my planked hull ready for grp skinning........ My Occre Ulises is a bilge hull. The destructions just show paint over the wood and there is nowt about using GRP ...... and the destructions just show planking the deck and then fitting the Gunwales. So, I need to be adapting that a bit if I'm going to put GRP over the hull...... Assuming the hull is sanded and filled ready to go, and the ply deck is fitted. Should I fit the raised gunwhales and take the GRP to the top of them or do I grp just the hull and fit the Gunwhales after....... The reason I'm not sure here is: If I'm fitting the Gunwales and taking the GRP up to the top of them, then I have to plank the deck first and mask it up to protect it, as it is impactical, as far as I can see, to plank it effectively with the Gunwhales fitted........ I think all that makes sense ??????
