Hi Bill,
Yes i did remember and took a quick look in the forward hatch. it looked OK, but have to admit i was not exactly sure where i was looking for any separation. The inside forward hatch seemd be all gelcoat and no tabbing/plywood or stringers noted?
Do you have any pics? I will re-read your post and try again.
I am trying to get the big picture before i start, you may be on to something .....
Thanks Nick
Nestor, gottcha .... and keep us posted ...
