Jeffs FS14 LS

Got the tank bed pieces cut out. Used an old jig to taper the bottom of the platform.

A little scorching but servicable.

My front compartments will have a sole but the tank will be in a mini-bilge that will have a pump and worst case hold a few gallons of water.

The final clearance with the tank on a 9mm tapered platform and 3/4" blocks is 5 1/2" from the top of the neck to the underside of the deck . My boat is +10%

Step 2 of the sole join: filling the gap...

Chiseled out the bolt head spaces on the tank feet. Some cleaner than others. I'm out of practice with the ww tools but looking forward to spending more time with em.
