[QUOTE="J.P., post: 272037, member: 5999"] glassing the outside seam, though not required for your method, is always a good idea. but i don't think it's practical to tape the inside because that would require filling the corners with putty. remember to round the edges to be taped so your glass has a nice even surface to bond with. the round edges are also more resistant to abrasion than pointy angles. for taping seams, it's better to use fiberglass weaved at 45 degrees because it adds to the stiffness of your hull.
