I decided to add some fibreglass reinforcement to under the nose deck for 3 reasons. One, so that in the event of the nose being pushed underwater it won't spread the nose.... two, so that I can stand on it for docking or maintenance reasons.... and three, for mounting of avionics etc.
Firstly I liquid nailed some 20mm diameter backer rod then the next day added 1 layer of fibreglass over the top. I also fibreglassed on some alloy mounting points for mounting of avionics etc
