: I just completed stripping the hull of a Guillemot L. Would it be
: best to install the external stems now or wait until the deck is
: completed.

On mine I did it after the deck was stripped. That let me wrap the stem strips right around the ends from the hull onto the tip of the deck. When it was time to separate the hull and deck I just cut through the external stems with a pull saw.
