Partial Bulkheads

Well she is slowly starting to look more like a yacht on the inside too. I am on a bit of a roll at the moment and seem to be able to achieve more and more in the limited time available.
The partial bulkhead on the starboard side is complete with all the necessary framing attached for the settee berth, as well as the chart table, and is ready to be fixed permanently to frame #6. The one on the port side is still to have it's framing attached before it can be permanently fixed to the frame.

Side Decks

Over the past couple of weeks all the pieces for the side decks have been cut and dry fitted to check for proper allignment. Last night the first layer on the starboard side was permanently glued in place. The sequence of photographs below show the deck carlines in place followed by two of the two layers temporarily in place and lastly the first layer on the starboard side after glueing in place. The batten along the sheer line is temporary and is to ensure a true and even sheer line. Next step will be to do the same on the port side followed bt the second layer on both sides.
