2 layers of CSM and 4 layers of 1708 on top of core. 1 layer of 1708 to go on backside to seal everything. Feels very solid already though!

Gauge layout is going to change. This is bothering my ocd too much. Trim tab switch and switch panel will be to the right of the wheel... someday

So much sanding lol

Starboard dash fill tabbed into place on front side. Still need to glass a layer of 1708 on the back of both sides

Cuddy entrance trimmed up

I think I'm finally to the point where others can see what I'm going for lol

Glad to be back at it! Work kept me too busy all spring and summer. I wasn't able to start working on it again till the end of September! 😫 Lol

Thank you! I do most of my boating on the St. Lawrence River with the occasional weekend on Cayuga lake.

That’s a fun stage where your mock ups start to grown their own legs and you can see light just begging to come into view in the far end of the tunnel.

Well done sir!

Sweet layout!!!

Getting the edges and backsides of the dash laid up so everything is completely encapsulated.

Underside of driver side dash. That's going to be fun 🙄

https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...ae8c24f103.jpg
Got all the edges wrapped up in 2 layers of 1708. 1st layer on port and starboard side dash covers the whole backside and wraps up over the front edge.

Got some sanding done. The tabbed-in filler panel is pretty close to flush.
https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...04b472727b.jpg
Got a couple edges sanded up pretty good. Only a few hundred more hours of sanding to go.

Really happy with how everything is coming together thus far. I don't think I'll have all the layups done in time for winter because the temps are dropping quickly and my heat lamps can only do so much! I have plenty of sanding I can do to stay warm though 😂

https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...63684be3e3.jpg
Laid up some CSM in the low spots on the dash so I don't have to use much filler. All my low spots are less than 1/8" though, which was both surprising and relieving.

Needed to glass in a little extension here so that my cabin door seals better when installed. I guess my bulkhead panels weren't lined up 100% with one another. Why did I ever assume that the factory panels were square to one another? Lol
