Deck Joint

Our deck joint leaked in multiple areas because of bond failure and separation. We fiberglassed the entire joint with 3 layers of 10oz FG tape, and increased thru bolt centers to a minimum of 6 in centers with 1/4 x 20 screws.

Leaky deck joint previously glued with mishmash and fastened on 12in centers

Thickened epoxy was smeared on edge for fiberglass round-over adhesion
