What you want to do, will add a lot of weight to the boat.
It would probably be less weight to cut some thin plywood
frames to fit inside the hull.

if you want to add around 25% to the weight of the boat without any real benefit to the boat's performance. If you are dealing with an electric boat, the added weight of the glass is unneccessary
