Default How are the hull and deck joined?

I was wondering on 2000 era boats how fountain bonded the hull/deck joints?

Did they glass them together or bond them? Which is better?

on my 1999 32 they are glass together and thru bolted,,Its more work then bonding but I would think its a much stronger joint,,less flex and both pieces become one..

First they get an adhesive(plexus) & are glued together, glassed & thru-bolted.
