Had my first really fiddly bit to deal with today, and it wasn't even shown in the manual - a locker which is attached to one of the deck house walls:
Let me guess, absolutely no fixing "tabs", all edge-to-edge joins?I've taken to using a little tissue paper soaked in PVA on the inside of the joins to make them a little stronger

I can see that could be a problem - I hope I did it accurately enough, but at least on this model the hull side go up past the tabs and another strip forms the inner surface, so this would hide any gaps hopefully.
Should be OK then. The trawler I built just had railings around the rear and foredecks.shortar53 said:

Yes all edge joins, but seemed to attach ok. Good tip using tissue for strengthening joints I've taken to using a little tissue paper soaked in PVA on the inside of the joins to make them a little stronger
