Cover almost done.
The new aluminium two part mast arrived on Friday, big thanks to Paul and Phil for this. Today I bent on the sails to see how it looked, and also to measure up for a storage bag. All the mast, sails, boom etc. fit inside this brown bag, which in turn fits inside the pram.
Tomorrow a last coat of varnish and we are pretty much done.

Non slip floor paint done, hatches done, pintles and gudgeons fitted, more varnishing done. Last seats to go in later today, then almost ready to paint the bottom of the hull. Can I see the light at the end of the tunnel?
]]>My boat is far from perfect, but she draws the crowds and even compliments from the white knuckle, GRP racing crew! You can't beat a bit of varnished plywood.
]]>The photo makes it look a lot nicer and shinier than real life.
]]>Final seat fitting. I think I might sand and varnish some of the floor parts and seat uprights before I bond in the seats.
]]>Will be interesting to see how flat it dries.
I fitted the Skeg and runners this morning.
