Getting close when the name is on the back.

Great berth too. I’d crash in it after a few.

I thought the steps were paduak. Walnut, did you say?

I can't see well with specs, so basically, I get a little dirt in the eyes. I do wear safety glasses or a faceshield for metalwork, but I tried it in here and the damn thing won't stay on, tips over.

I got one done, touch ups and the other hull cabin to sand still. Yuko!

Looking good. Do you have the standing and running rigging ready to install?

Powerboat only. I wish I had a small sail in case I ran out of gas, but it'd only go downwind or reach.0

Some form of sail assist is starting to look a lot better now for some reason :roll: Be a shame to get that thing finished and then have to go rob a bank to fuel it up :cry:
