Panel area and curvature will affect the layup required.
I would look towards Kayak construction.
Are you using a mould ?
Biaxial glass cloth is easy to drape and wet out 300 gram M2 cloth is about right this cloth will give a more constant thickness than Chop Strand Mat
Two or Three layers should suffice for panels with added thickness in stressed areas.
I cant remember the resin to glass ratio off the top of my head.
Resin choice is important as some resins cure to be more brittle than others.
I hope this will point you in a forward direction.
