First Hull Continued

There's a limit per page, hence a second page for the first hull.  This will take you from Last Coats before Lift Off, then from Lift Off to setting the hull in the cradles once the inside of hull has been fibreglassed.

• 8/10/2023 - Sanded all faired sections. Filled the end corners once again.  The front we laid 2 layers of 600gm fibreglass so we don't have to worry about it when doing the main part of the hull. Redid some areas with fairing compound.  Cleared tables ready to cut fibreglass and peel ply.

Fibreglassing Right in the Bottom of the Inside of the Hull  - COMING NOT SO SOON but coming when we do it.  This will get done the same time as the second hull. So stay tuned for that .  Bit of a tight area, so it could be a bit tricky.
