Today I fitted both decks. I gave the underside of both deck panels a priming coat of epoxy and left them for a while until the epoxy started to go off. Then coated the inside of the compartments with epoxy and gave the underside of the deck panels a second coat. Thickened epoxy was applied to the glue line between decks and hull (plenty of epoxy to make sure that the joint was full of glue) and the panels put in place with temporary staples to hold them down. With them stapled down I cleaned up the excess epoxy, easy on the outside and messy on the inside where it had to be done by feel. Here are the decks in place.
