Hmm ... I seem to have bumped up against a board attachment quota for photos. Under prodding from Mike, I was going to upload another picture showing progress ... Anyway, I'll have to resort to the thousand words: Finished fitting No.1 Bulkhead today. Finish paint in the forepeak. Getting ready to fit the decks. More anon,

Thanks, Wes. Yeah, I have to figure something out ... just not sure which platform I want to use.

Okay men, I've taken the plunge and started the blog so I won't be a picture hog here ...

I threw eight or so posts up from two years ago, in order to make it sequential.

The shop cat looks like he's having a relaxing build session.

Ken, there's a story behind that cat ... He's crazy about the shop - always sneaking in, so when I was glassing the outside of the hull, he was getting these epoxy drips into his fur. After a while, he had a carapace like an armadillo. Needless to say, we had to cut it all off and ban him from his favorite haunt. Didn't phase him ...
