Hi Bernd, for bigger areas you can use the yellow bags for recyclable materials we commonly have at home here in Germany... cheaper than deepfreezing bags...........
PS. :oops: Sorry for the Spam mails... problem solved (F....ng Chinese sellers) :oops: :x

Hi Carlo,

don't mention about the spam mail - I thought it was by oversight.
Until yet I haven't order something :lol: .

The yello bag is a good idea :idea: I think I have to visit the town hall to pick up a package.

I hope the the font of the yellow bag does not mirror onto my boat - otherwise people throw rubbish in it. :doh:

Explanation:
The yellow bags in Germany are especially for plastic rubbish to recycle it.

Bye
Bernd

.....the rubrail stripes are in place....the third layer is glued.....
I had to secure the stripes with drywall screw because the stripes slided away - perhaps of too liquid glue/ resin.

I needed about 6 hours per one layer for both sides - one layer per side was 3-4 stripes.
The time is calculated :
- mixing epoxy (always 75ml a batch)
- coating each side and each stripe
- making glue with the left over
- cover the stripes
- mixing the next epoxy / glue
- cover stripes
- install the left side
- secure with screws
- taking away the too much glue
....and so on

For a first time builder I can recommend only to make one side a time -otherwise you are in hurry like I'am.

You look like you already have the wind in your face.

What a good clean build.

....Thanks, in my dreams I see it sometimes floating....and during building I make sometimes jokes or other funny things - so the building becomes not boring - my wife and kids sometimes shake their heads....but thats me :wink:

Here I'am at the moment,

- hatches mid seat installed (little work to do)
- all inside glassed, bottom double
- all inside sanded (what a work)
- tubes for electric and fuel dry installed
- box for the anchor designed and nearly finished
- box for the bilge pump designed and 50% finished
- backing plate for the bow eye installed
- reinforcements for mid seat and rear seat cut and glassed
- drain hole cut and epoxy filled

......the edges and corners are very strong - I think I overlapped too much - if you knock there it sounds like stainless steel......little bit overbuild
:lol:

....hope the temperature will stay the next time until 15°C to keep on working....


I decided to do all inside work included painting job before flipping the hull for outside glassing - or don't you recommend it?

bye

Hi Bernd!!! I was off for a couple of weeks, but I'm following your progresses.... of course you can finish the interior before to flip the hull :) I hope too for a loooong autumn with mild temperatures... but you know.. we have only two seasons in Germany: cold with leaves an cold without leaves :cry:

PS. thanks for the link... 8)
