Default Rebuilding 60 yr.old ceder runabout:

Hello boat people. I am trying to rebuild an old cedar lapstrake boat . It
is 16' L x 5',2" W withan small forward deck. I am an novice at this and
would like some
advice please. Some of the hull planks 3/8" cedar have longitudinal cracks
and I would like to fill them with some type of compound not sure what to
use. I understand lapstrake design are hard to rebuild as covering with
cloth and epoxy are not recommended.

Respectfully

Ron
