Did you glass the deck? I see a lot of people doing that but was not planning on it myself, I believe the plans do not require it.

No, I personally couldnt afford to. I dont think its needed to be honest, I just sealed everything in epoxy, its plenty strong.

I'm going to plan on the same, skipping the deck glass. It will be a few months before I get there so if you have a change of heart in the interim let me know.
There are only two seasons in Vermont: boating season, and boat-building season.
