That's a sweet desk! Cutting as in sewing etc or something else? You and narfi are leading the "keep the family happy during the build" awards!

Cutting table for sewing. Best to keep the family happy. Might be the only reason they keep me around.

First bit of expanding foam poured and trimmed, and finalized plumbing for up forward and gas tank fill and vent hoses.

Coat of System worthwhile in the middle compartment? Will likely add an inspection hatch in the forward compartment.

If that's the case then you should slow-roll those deliverables to stretch out your welcome!

Chase work looking great!
There are only two seasons in Vermont: boating season, and boat-building season.

Thank you. I'm in awe as to how rigid the forward sweep was before buried in foam, and now, even more so.

Dan you have made a major structural mistake by cutting into the boards supporting the deck. Some look to only be a 1/4" left. This is not good over the long term. You should have placed the tubing under the deck supports and down even an 1" lower. I was ready to build a C19 when I bought CL OD18 when he got sick. So I know a little bit about your boat. I even had the wood for it and frame built. :lol: Well take care.

I get it. I appreciate all the input I can get from this group. 1/4" is all that is left over the 2" tubes. I spent a fair amount of time deliberating that fact, but ultimately decides that once 1/2" sole, (spec is 3/8"), is stuck to the top pf the stringer cap, this homogeneous bond will provide 3/4" over the cut out.

If I had more room, I would have done it differently, but this is what I've got now. Full send...

Cheating...

First frame dry fit. Feels good to be working above the waterline!

You could save a lot of steps and just CNC-cut the fish.
