Tab the sides kinda like an "L" bracket from the side of the stringer, then cut a horse shoe to encapsulate the "L" and sometimes i will go for a second lam. of the "L" bracket.
Kinda hard to explain but that's about the best i can do with a keyboard! lol

I usually have some small pieces of mat with torn edges to get the top of the stringer where it is tight to the transom. Once you get a few layers built up of mat it rolls out very nice. I use vinylester though not epoxy. I know the mat that I use is not compatible with epoxy.
