Brief Description:  Tapes along the fin.

I used 2" bias cut tape on the front of the fin which made the curve at the bottom easy. I started at the curve by wetting the centerline of the curve and placing the fabric. I let it dry so it would stay in place while I worked the sides into place. I ran the 2" tape forward a few inches past the curve to avoid having the work the 4" tape around the radius. After the curve was done I worked up the sides of the fin.

The 2" bias tapeI used was left over from covering the stab parts. As an alternative a 1 foot length of tape could be cut of of excess fabric in a bias direction, and used at the curve. Standard tape could be used for the rest of the fin.
