I also installed a strip of foam to the outside to attach a rubrail. I fiberglassed the cap, hull and inwale together. At this point, everything in the boat is one-piece (monocoque) construction.
Since I filled in the transom, I had a little more than 1/8" gap where the original cutout was. I ordered some 1/8" Divinycell to fill this in and built it up the rest of the way with 1708. At this point in the build (2 years in), I was getting to the point I wanted it done. So we will say that my fairing of this area left a little to be desired.
