Scippy.....Well I have the as you say shoe box style hull as well. The inside of my hull was glassed already I'm guessing from the factory, so all I had to do is the outside. I took a grinder and grinded in between the hull and the deck. Then I crammed it full of Cabaseal to get everything nice and flush then laid a lair of mat over that to tie it all together. Then grind and shape it and put a good skim coat of alexseal gray fairing putty to smooth it all out nice and get it ready for primer. I will be bending the SS rub rail around the bow bend & corners .And im getting the flat half round from a local boat supply warehouse. Hope this helps you if not let me know.

RF77,

Did the yard show any concern when the idea of flipping your boat was discussed?...... was a waiver dicussed "if things go horribly wrong?.......2 yards now completely rejected the notion of using there equipment to flip my boat.......I'll find a yard (plenty here in Jersey) and get it flipped eventually. The issue of Liability is no doubt a concern.

Nope, no concern they have done it many times before me and with wwwwwaayyyy more $$$$$ boat, So mine was not a big deal. No waiver eather but they are use to dealing with 2 to 5 million dollar yachts i hope you can find some one to help you its the fastest and safest way to flip a boat for sure.
