Fiberglassing stringers
 
When grassing stringers what are the effects of using a full piece of glass versus over lapping pieces. I would assume a full piece is best, but if your we're to overlap and use pieces how does it effect the structural integrity of th stringer? Please help

Are you talking wraping the stinger or tabbing it to the hull?

I have seperation between the stringers and fiberglass. I will be pulling out the old glass and need to tab in a swell as wrapping the stringers any suggestions on full pieces of glass or 3 or 4 pieces

^^^ I've been watching his videos for my up in coming stringer project. ^^^^

I plan on following his directions for my project. I'm sure it'll be better then new when finished.

It does not matter if done properly. Best thing to do is the biggest piece u can wet out and lay comfortably. I do 3-4" of overlap and its plenty strong.
