I am unable to find my old "build" thread, if there ever was one..

Lots of water have passed into the sea and lots of stuff have happened in my life but the build is still ongoing.

We build 1-3 hours a week so this is taking forever to finish if you look at the calendar. If counting hours it is not that bad but it would be nice to go sailing soon.

Anyway, what I was going to do was to give you some input on installation of the main deck.

First you need a hull with a load bearing structure of course silly. Then a 4mm gaboon ply piece to fit as the deck.
Notice deck beams with thick paper glued on to hold the thickened epoxy for fillets as the deck is installed.
The centerboard case is clearly visible, as is the carbon chainplate.

The underside of the deck is first covered in unthickened epoxy and put aside. Then an hour is spent preparing all surfaces and fillets on the hull. Last thing I do before installing the deck is to add another rather thick layer of inthickened epoxy. This is the waterproofing for the underside of the deck..
Then it is only a matter of positioning the deck, slap it on, and apply pressure to force it down on to the hull. If no thickened glue is pressed out, you now have a real issue to handle

You can NOT have too many straps..

All in all a 3 hour job for a single person.
