Re: Tabbing

08,

Tabbing is simply using 2"-4" wide fiberglass tape along with the appropiate resin to attach the perimeter of your wood transom core or new inner transom glass skin to the sides and bottom of the boat. Could be stringers too. This holds everything in position for laying up however many layers of glass cloth you want to put over the wood core/inner skin to finish the repair.

Hope this make sense.
