That’s an interesting idea Todd, thanks for the input. But I don’t think I’ll be adding one. I’m just trying to get some steady progress here. Keep us posted on your nova.

That hull and cap has such beautiful lines.

Thanks I haven’t had time to work on it in several days. That’s a 3M 7476 I believe. We use them a lot on cars. I hope to get back on the boat here in a week or so.

Thank you stclair. I finally was able to get some more done today. I’m flying solo right now so it’s slow go. I was able to do some tabbing. I got the v berth area port and starbd done. I figured out it was much easier to cut the pieces in about 18” lengths and overlap them to get them to stay in place. Also a rock grinder with a cutting wheel is the fastest way to cut the screws back.

Got the port and starbd Setee area prepped and tabbed as well as finished a few places in the floor and started repairing a few places on the bow....
