FIBERGLASS TAPE

Postby Jollyroger on Tue Sep 14, 2010 3:38 pm

I'm about half way through building my PocketShip and have this large roll of fiberglass tape. Used about 5 feet in the bow and that is about it. Did I get extra tape or did I miss something along the way?

The manual shows it being used to reinforce the joint between the seats and aft cabin bulkhead and also the joint between the upper and lower hull sides.

I have the same question ...but I suppose by the time you do the sitting area, the inside and the outside most of this roll will be used....

I didn't remember putting tape between the seat and bulkhead,thanks for reminding me. Must have missed where it said to tape the hull sides together. Thanks again for the help.
