Well the hull sideboards, bulkheads, noseblock and lower stringers went together fine. I've been working on the foam/ply mast step pieces that go between bulkheads 3 and 7. These are taking a little longer then expected to fit and bond together and then fit the assembly in place. The thickness increases with the addition of epoxy.I also finished the setback weight saving holes/design and did the cutouts. this was preventing me from fitting and epoxying the seat back in place. That will be done tomorrow morning. I'll prefit the steering linkage then also. I've began collecting some hardware needed to assemble the hull, springboard and plank along with runner and steering materials. Next purchase is the plank and springboard lumber.

I'l post some new pictures tomorrow.
