I agree with Bushwacker, most of the hulls done this way have had core added to the sides or extra glass added for strength. The master angler hulls were 3 piece like this one will end up after you cut the liner out of it and the sides on the ma were twice as thick as the 2 piece super fish hull sides. They were built that way since there was no liner and the ma hull with out liner was by far the thickest hull sides than any other seacraft hull I have owned. I had a 20 foot seafari, super fish, secptre and master angler hulls all side by side at the same time and was surprised just how much thicker the ma was. Also you may want some support on the sides, cut some 2x4s and notch them to hold the sides together or support them some how. I had a 71 superfish hull with out the top cap on bare just like yours and it sat on the trailer for 5 years with out support and it grew almost 6 inch wider than my 74 model sitting beside it. It was hard to pull them back in once they sat that way a long time too. There was another member up here that had the same issue after glassing the side core in and he ended up cutting the cap to make it wider so it would fit back on. Nice project by the way, good luck on you build!
