Fairing the Hull

Posted by Kevin on Oct 15, 2006

I have faired my hull and keel now has a nice clean shape. In order to do this, however, I have had to add wedges to the point where I now have a 1/4" gap for around 3.5 feet in the cockpit area. My bulkheads are also very loose and pushing them out a few inches both fore and aft does not solve the problem.

Question - Any concerns here or should I just go ahead and add the epoxy fillets and fiberglass tape?
