: Very simple sturdy design, but color me puzzled, how do you cut the top of
: the forms when their in the stripped hull? I see some using this method
: cut the forms fully and attach them to stand offs that are removed when
: you flip the boat, is that easier?

I'll glass the outside of the hull, pull the hull, glass the inside. Cut the forms, hot glue them into the hull, strip the deck. Both ways work. I wanted to gain some time to settle onto a deck design, so I've waited. If I reuse the forms, I'll set them up with risers.

: appreciated when fussing with the 2 1/2 foot long eagle's head blending
: into flames inlay on the fore deck.

Now that's cool. Nice picture. Tell me, how do you achieve something like this?
