Didnt know you got back back on it, haven't scrolled down this far in a while, seeing your want ad tonight made me check in.
It looks great you should be proud, shes really gonna be something special when your done.
It has to be a big motivator now that you hit this milestone
if you didnt already, get with glass dave about bonding the hull and deck, he has a slick way of doing it so you end up with 2 layers of overlapping/ staggered pieces of material as you work your way around the boat.
Make sure you post the technique since your using epoxy, i want to know what material and what size pieces.

Sounds good I’ll see what he says. I worked on it a few hours this afternoon. I’m still trimming bulkheads and getting the fit just right. I set the hatches in place today. They fit much tighter in the holes than my 30 footer hatches. Did I mention I really like the look of these old boats?
