      Hi Jeremy,
      The windscreen and doors don't require
      Any bid overlay,as the Araldite 420 bond is very good.
      We simply filled the gap with Araldite
      420/flox mix,carefully scraping off the excess with a blade to get the surface
      as flat as possible to leave a minimum
      amount of sanding when cured.
      Best regards
      Andy Cullum
      G-CGDH.

      Hello Rowland,
      
      Same problem here. I just lowered them to a position and angle that they did fit,
      then marked positions for clecos on the port side by eye. The nose of the lower
      rib needs trimming but that is covered in the manual. Don't drill the starboard
      side because once you are working with the Araldite you will never find
      them again.  Bond and cleco stbd in one go.

      The ribs are there to provide torsional stiffness to the fin and are not load carrying.
      Moving them around a bit shouldn't make any difference at all. They don't
      even need to exactly parallel. I would steer away from reinforcements other
      than the bond itself because that just adds weight.
