Finishing the Hull

More filleting as we work down the planks.... we could have added the taping at this stage, but more time constraints and home-life beckon.

She's a beauty! All the planks on and filling the chines before adding the glass tapes. People coming through the yard are now stopping to chat and admire now that the shape is coming together (the yard owner has threatened to charge admission due to the amount of footfall we are generating)


Next stage - adding the tape to the outside and then...... turning her over...

Are you excited Gerry?

  1. One of the things Guy forgot to mention is that the way that we added the 'bondo'; we tried our best to miss the cable ties whilst bonding the inside of the panels so that they could be removed once the filler had set, then add extra filler before adding the glass tapes.
