"....The deck has no fiberglass cloth on it whatsoever.  I would imagine
that very few S&G wood kayaks are actually fiberglass-wood-fiberglass
sandwich for the entire boat....."

Only on the hulls of  multichine designs. With the width of the tape and the
narrow panels you might as well use cloth on both inside and out. Decks are
normally not fiberglassed or else fiberglassed on top only.
