Philip,
Your post makes total sense, I just can't seem to find a product that would do what you describe without being inherently non-hardening. The product I had decided on is Dolfinite: http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?productId=46321&catalogId=10001&langId=-1&storeId=11151&storeNum=10104&subdeptNum=10325&classNum=10328 . It's pretty expensive, but seems like it would be just the ticket for filling in all of the unwanted voids between the hull and cross member. In the description it clearly states that it remains flexible. To your point though, I read through the build directions last night for the Sol Cat and they made no mention of bedding the hulls in anything. So maybe bolting them down and sailing the damn thing is the best course of action!
Thanks for the compliment on the paint. Have to admit that I was just the body work and prep monkey, talked my Pop's into painting it for me! Know your weaknesses, and those who find them contrary to their own... or something like that. π
I've high jacked this thread enough now, sorry.

Define your goals/needs. Ask yourself if they are justified and/or really needed? Maybe the answer is to do nothing. . .
