    The panel size for fiber orientation is not the whole side or bottom panel of the boat. Instead it's the area of the hull between two bulkheads or any such rigid part built inside the boat. Thou 0 oriented fibers contribute to overall longitudinal stiffness it's not necessarily the same as panel stiffness..
