Marking decks for cowling.
One deck in place being marked for trimming.
Deck being glued in place with epoxy.
Put the cowling in place. Draw a line on
each side of the cowling. These lines should
trace the cowl on each side, marked on the
deck supports.
Remove the cowling.
Using a couple of small clamps, clamp one
deck to the deck support near the front and
rear.
Use masking tape, tape the rear portion of
the deck down. Tape at the transom too.
Continue taping the front portion.
Make sure that the inside edge of the deck
covers your line on the deck support.
If all looks well, make an alignment mark on
the deck and deck support. This will make it
easier to line up the deck when you are
gluing it in place.
Set the cowl in place and trace directly onto
the decks.
These will be your trim lines. Trim the deck
to these lines. You will now align the pre-cut
decks to the lines you drew on the deck
supports.
For the deck installation, make sure that the
hull is sitting on your flat work surface. If the
hull is twisted, the deck installation will lock it
in that position. Weight the hull down so that
it remains straight.
You will need a small glue brush for the next
steps.
Mix about 1/2 ounce of 30 minute epoxy.
Use your brush to coat all areas that this
deck will touch. Bulkheads, stringers and
deck support. Work quickly. Paint a thin coat
of epoxy onto the deck perimeter.
As soon as everything is ready, start
clamping and taping the deck as before.
Use your alignment mark to save time.
