I did mange to get both upper side panels adjusted and tack welded. I had to redo a lot of the quick work I did to get them on the boat. It is not easy moving 16 foot pieces around. I should had gotten some help, but my wife was out of town.
Once I got them adjusted, I mixed up a batch of thickened epoxy in a pastry bag and applied tack welds all the way around on the upper side panels and backseat supports. I used some denatured alcohol on my finger to smooth them out.
Below you can see a few pictures. I am not sure if I had removed the wires in the pictures, but they are gone.

I still need to tack weld the rear cabin wall, but I wanted to adjust the location of it before.
This weekend, I plan to do the fillets over the tack welds or as much as I can. I think I might try the tape method for the fillets to catch the overflow. I tried earlier on in the build, but didn't have too much luck.
