Foredeck number 2

As the deck goes on it is starting to look like I have a catamaran in my garage.

It's over

The starboard hull is finally the right way up. I had the help of a friend today to do it and it was a fairly easy two person job. Have not weighed it yet but feels light. The port hull was 88Kg at this stage.

I also took the opportunity to remove and dismantle the bulkhead supporting frame. No more hulls to build! This will help a lot keeping the floor clear and working around the boat easier especially now as there is not so much room.

It is so cool now having the hulls up and side by side.

Just enough

I had just enough 2 part primer left over from the last round of painting to do the bottom paint. I had to scrape the last out of the tin but got there in the end. Then over that with some top coat.

In this photo you can see the back of the filled hole where the rigging bolt is in the bow.

Pretty much ready for turning over now.

Dusty

Dusty, is what my garage has become building this boat.

Here it is glassed, filled and faired, almost ready for paint on the bottom.
