Fantastic work there Karl as always, she's coming along nicely. By the way that was a fantastic picture of your boat yard by the way, lots of projects under construction there. You said your starting to veer away from the magazine? Are we talking enhancements here? Regards

Correct, another deck over the beams which does not have any grating or companionway holes.

Very nice Karl, likewise I am putting the beams in the lower deck but also planking but I am holding of until I see all the stern bits as I want to put in the stern chasers. There are a lot of mods required in this area if I am to succeed. All the best mate, Sandy

thank you very much gents,got to see what's happening,as this deck looks like the deck(cockpit I think,)so a fair bit will be seen.I don't really like planking the decks in situ. can't sand down and varnish properly.

Karl, might be an odd angle photo but your frame 27 appears to be sloping backwards when it should look upright in relation to frame 26 even though 27 its not yet glued.
