Fibreglass cloth overlap
Fibreglass cloth overlap
When sheathing the outer hull, do you wrap the cloth across the front of the stems? IE with an overlap?
Re: Fibreglass cloth overlap
Never try to do that Joe .... the way the cloth is laying won't allow it to turn that sharp and take the shape. Typically you run the clothe forward and once you get to that part, you cut the bottom part (like a crease) back to where it meets the stem.
Then continue with the epoxy, trim off the excess after the first coat get set.

look down about 3/4 of the way to the bottom, I think it is what you are asking
