Since the bulkheads and the hull planks are joined together, now it's time to reinforce the inside part before turnnig the hull upside down. It's done by adding fillets of epoxy and flox on the inside corners and then adding one or more layers of fiberglass strips. The strips were cut in a way to make the fibers in a 45° angle, to increase shear stress resistance.
