The first length of deck on the starboard side is bonded and glassed in place, cut from template, as Guy mentioned in an earlier post: The fit was not perfect!!! The aft and fwd sections are a good fit. The middle section needs re-making.
A bit of a mission getting under the deck to bond and glass (below) but I did manage with a little swearing etc! As mentioned in one of my last posts, 2 more layers of glass holding the deck to the chamfer, staggered. Inboard end (deck to Cedar batten) a single layer of glass, and single layer under deck to bulkheads join. The pic below was taken looking upwards.
A little planing and sanding and it's all smooth, ready for some filler.
So (as below) I have a long way to go with more swearing. Hoping to get the next (middle) section prepared later today and bonded etc in the next few days. Then to repeat the whole process on the port side.
More posts and photos when the deck is on completely. Might start to look like a boat then.
