Again I would suggest that this may be fine for you, with your
experience, but I still would not reccomend it to any first time

Its infinitely simpler than stripper, lapped strake, or plank on frame
techniques novices use after reading, say, Moore, Hill or Bheuler(?). I
can't imagine pumping goop as a challenge for novices at all. I dreamed it
up when building my first boat. When I posted it here other boatbuilders
reported filling voids in much the same way. Solving problems is one of
the fun things about building almost anything. I note in boatbuilding
books the authours can't resist describing the tools, jigs, and techniques
they dreamed up to solve problems.
