Here I went back and put a screw in each side of the scarf. Note use shorter screws.
I used a clamp to work my way forward. I had to work fast and was not able to get photos of the front process. I worked one frame at a time switching from side to side.
As you can see, there will need to be a bit of pressure used to get the rub rails in place. Watch those scarf joints.
Both of the back rub rails on and moving to the front.
Here you can see how I ran the glue.
I did the back on one side. Then moved to the other.
I am using 3" ceramic coated screws and PL Premium polyurethane glue. Here you can see the screw and its position to the framing. IMPORTANT: Take note that the screw is off center to the frame. This is to avoid hitting the screw that was used to attach the plywood. I also made pilot holes so I wouldn't split the frame. Make sure that the rub rail is flush with the plywood and framing.
I made an index mark on the rub rail and the hull. This will allow me to apply the glue and run a screw into the hull and not worry about the for and aft position of the rub rail.
I am attaching the rub rail on my own so I'm using cheap labor (clamps). In this photo, I am just checking length and how much stress will be on the wood as it is bent around the hull. As always, I will try and provide photos as completely as possible.
