Now that I am getting close to fairing and planking I was thinking about the build and realised that all the work I have put in so far and all the things I have done, will not actually be seen. To be fair it hasn't be too difficult so far but the next stage will be critical.

So, I wondered if people here would mind spending a minute or two just looking over what I have done so far (15 pics) to see if I have made any errors that need correcting at this stage.

Thanks shipmates.

My wife: Why are you putting up more pictures of that boat on the internet?
Me: What do you mean I haven't put any up yet?
My wife: Well what are all those pictures you keep looking at then?
Me: They are others peoples builds.
My wife: Well they look just like yours.
Me: That's because....oh never mind.

They look the same as mine, I have also fitted both parts 34 which fit under the supports. They would soon show you if they were out of plumb.BigGrin BigGrin

4th pic from the bottom shows supports for stern gallery. nearest support looks like it is sloping upwards slightly and 5th support working back does not look in line or sloping down slightly.

You are right and 34 went in OK so I assumed I would correct that during fairing.
