after posting i went out to re investigate.

i believe the problem has come up due to the glass of the 1708 not being as thick as that that was used originally on the underside of the deck to encapsulate the wood.

the port side of the boat is solid due to me only needing to replace the strip of wood where the t top screwed down. this lead to an even surface that the spacers could come in contact with the stringer.

the starboard side of the deck was totally recored and replaced, leading to a bigger distance between the stringer and bottom of deck.

my solution is to tab the hull so that the outer edge of the deck is supported.

can the outer edge of the deck of the boat be glassed into the inner side of hull?

attached are upside down pictures of the stringer gap and also the gap between hull and edge of deck
thanks

I normally use super thickened epoxy for stuff like you mention. I take standard epoxy resin and then add enough cabosil to get it like peanut butter consistency and sometimes add fibber pellets (rice size fiber strands). Use it like they did from the factory by placing it in several different places on the stringers. Sometimes in 1" wide strips high enough to allow it to smash down when the deck is sat back on it. You may be able to get a bakers pouch that they use to smash icing out of and put the resin in it then inject it under the deck in various spots so that it will bond the two parts back together.

Arjay makes an adhesive for that purpose as well.

Looking at using the Arjay 4001 to bond the deck to the stringers (in addition to reglassing the perimeter back to the liner and foredeck) on a friends Paramount that we are redoing the floor on. We are about 2 weeks away (he's an over seas cargo pilot, 2 weeks on - 2 weeks off) but I'll try and post some input with pics of how it goes. It supposedly has some "give" to it.
