Thx guys. I look into all the options.

I will be working on strengthening my gunnels with either knees or gussets ( still don't know which is which ). There was very little info on the site or online in general about this topic. When I get to this, I'll start by glassing in core material under the gunnels about 2' past where each of my hardtop mount points are - then, based on how that feels, will add the extra support if needed.

If I do add gussets/knees, it would be ideal to glass to the hull, but the liner is there. And, I do not want to create a pressure point anywhere.

I have some time to figure it out, but there is a spot that I want to epoxy/glass now and that is the liner to topside seam near the foot pedestals at the helm and passenger areas. I've posted about this area and gotten varied responses. I think making it 'one' in that joint can't hurt.
