Strip: Cutting cockpit recess

Hello all. Almost done stripping the deck, should be able to finish over this weekend. Gonna cut the recess next. The boat is a Guillemot. The question is, do I cut the recess with a cut that is vertical (relative to the floor), Or at an angle(perpendicular to the deck surface)? I'm leaning toward a perpendicular cut. This would give me some bearing surface to glue to. Any advice? I'll post some updated pics to my sight probably Sunday night..Thanx for all the help..Steve
