Add two intermediate deck support beams.  Five fore/aft beams will be set into these bulkheads.

Corner bracing laminate

Scribe deck arc.




                        Rudder stock base.



Transom compartment is watertight, next is rudder stock followed with back cockpit bulkhead allowing inflatable buoyancy bag placement.  The deck camber has been corrected to match the transom.  I thought there was more tolerance to cover the 15 mm mismatch.  The deck would have converged 15mm above the upper edge of transom profile.  The upper bulkhead edges have been bolstered with left over mould stringers.  Side deck watertight compartments, 4x, will start at the rear cockpit bulkhead.

Frame set is finished but on hold for fitting until later.  This first bulkhead will create a watertight compartment in the rear of the boat.  Actually put it in the wrong location on top of the rudder stock so had to re measure and refit.  Starting next bulkhead.

The intermediate frame strips 3.5, 4.5, 5.5, 6.5 ready for laminating.  Used DAP Weldwood urea formaldehyde plastic resin glue.  Moving ahead with interior we marked positions for: fore and aft cockpit limits for maximum cockpit size, rudder penetration points, deck vertex line, mid section compartment limits, keel location.

 Station 3 frame will be set at about 10 degrees from vertical to better align with sides of hull.  This frame is cut down to 32mm width as well.

Both sides finished along sheer and trimmed with router.  Next is to reinstall ropes to adjust beam correctly along entire length and resume with frame work.  The transom crack is fixed but fiberglass buildup at the seems will improve that.

Just installed one sheer board and the other is coming up.  This will let me remove the upper nasty edge of the hull shell.   This used every clamp I could find and put frame work on hold as well.  The frame jig works very quickly.  I extended the range to stations 3-7 with intermediate frames at 3.5, 4.5, 5.5, 6.5 that are slightly narrower.

1. -Resolve nasty internal surface damage.  Coat inside with epoxy. 
2. -Setup baseline alignment to confirm hull is in proper shape.  
3. -Build transverse frames in station 3-7 region. 30%
4. -Install sheer beams and temporary beams to hold shell at loft positions.  50%
5. -Fiberglass the shell to keelson.  
6. -Stiffen front sections 1-3 with ribbing.
7. -Bulkheads, bouyancy cavities, beams.
8. -Cockpit, decking.
