I have placed the bottom sheet on my punt. The middle 5.5ft on each side has inside wales and the bottom is glued and nailed as well as glued and nailed on the 4 bulkheads and stem and stern pieces. The seams where ply meets ply have been joined with a decent filet of resin in the inside and two layers of 6oz tape on the outside edges.
The question to the stitch and glue masters is......
Do I have to tape the inside of the seams? Will not doing so seriously compromise the strength of the bond?
Why do I ask? Doing so will require another order of resin and there aren't enough shekels in the "project account"
Thanks!
