It looks real good. Glad I could be of some help. Can't wait to see your V12 sailing.

Hi Gents,
Things are progressing slowly! I've done the inner seams, cleaned up the outer hull, removed all the cable ties and smoothed and shaped the panels, almost ready for glass. At this stage I'm only going to glass the seams, not the whole bottom. I've just got to add a little putty between the glued bits where the cable ties were.
My (very) pregnant wife is due any day now, so progress will diminish in the coming weeks. Not to worry though, As long as I have the boat done before the kids are old enough to go sailing. Lol Progress will continue, just steady steady.

Congrats on the baby! My wife and I are expecting number four in a few weeks (or any day now as it might turn out). You can let me know how you get any work done with a little one! Maybe I can put ours in a baby sling and epoxy away!

Re: WouldWork's V12, Sailing version
Thanks Gents, for the congratulations.
All the best to you JCordray! All my mates are envious of my children, none of their Dad's built boats for them. Lol.
The secret to boat building with a new born is to invite as many friends and family around to visit as you can, then you simply slip away and do all your noisy jobs while the kids are awake and distracted. Then once kids are asleep you can do the quiet jobs through the night.
Fortunately for me, it's summer here, and the temperature rarely gets below 35C (95F) during the day, and rarely gets below 30C (86F) at night. Even in winter it's very unusual to get below 15C (59F) day or night so I can continue uninterrupted all year round. Although sanding for hours in 45C+ heat with 96%+ tropical humidity can get a little disheartening, I'm sure many of you know what I'm talking about.
Anyway, at work right now, so I'd better go and sell some stuff, hopefully I have an almost full weekend to play with the boat ahead of me.
Take care all.
