Been out of commission for a few weeks, and I'm getting back around to finishing this repair. I added more tabbing to the stringers, and laid a final full sheet of 1708 to finish off the inner laminate. Now I've ground back the butt joints about 3" on each side of the joint, preparing to butt join the cap back on. The picture shows where I plan to place butt blocks. After taking the picture I decided I would use a long 68" x 6" wide block along the bottom, 21"x6" along each side, and the two a block under each rail at the top. I plan to resin coat the wood, and add a layer of matt to seal it in the bilge area. Anyone see flaws in this plan, or got advice on the best way to get the cap back on?
