More on the Rudder Housings

Some more work here on preparing the rudder housings.

The process can be seen here for the mounting points to the gudgeon's, starting with plywood sandwiches shaped to fit the housing.


Then cut around the outside and glued in place.

 

 
Then wrapped up in a about 2 metres of 300 GSM carbon uni.



I have had to stop there for now on the housings as the boat will need to be moved forward to allow me to line up the gudgeon's on the housings. The transom of the port hull is hard up against a shelf in the garage so I'll continue with these once the boat is moved which I'll leave until later as once moved I have less space in the garage.
