Well It's been a while since I updated this thing and I got an email from a buddy down in Australia asking if I had fallen in a hole or something. He is building the same boat as me but modified in yet a different manner. Anyway, over the last month or so, me and my sweetie have been busy doing all kinds of things from vacationing to camping to putting in a garden, trimming trees and working. So Bruce, I have made some progress and here are a couple of pics to prove it.
The cockpit sides and sole have been installed and bilge back in the cockpit area has been sealed and painted. I need to go and get more plywood now to continue. There will be a bottom added under the side benches for storage and then the side benches will go on over the framework. Up at the top of this picture, you can see I am making a pattern for the v-birth.
Another shot of the cockpit area.
Making the pattern for the v-birth floor.
The floor of the v-birth is ready to be installed. The area is just where our feet and legs will go. To the rear of this are two seats facing to stern and the backs of these seats will fold down when it's bed time to make for the rest of the sleeping area. There are a couple of drawings near the start of this blog that show how that will work.
