Got it. I’ve never done it myself but think about it a lot, and always get hung up on the sequence of glass, screws, clamps, etc. looks like you go to though. Great shape to it!

I am at a point where I need to glue the birth down. Also, just finished the second coat of primer on the roof.

Been making progress on the stringers and bulkheads. Just tabbed in the last bulkhead, need to fiberglass it in, and the stringers on both sides. Then I need to add the conduit for battery cables, steering, and other electrical. After that I can add flotation foam, and glue the sole down.

Been making progress. Took the boat house down last weekend. Sole is mostly done, started installing the upper part of the cross frames.

Progress photos.

Question, when joining the foam panels (cabin sides and top), should I use wood putty/flower, or one of the other resin thickeners.

Thanks

Dennis
