Do you think they stick it in in little 1 inch sections then Ross?

I mean the wetting 30 foot of cloth then consolidating it after, as opposed to wetting & consolidating it as you go along.

Great to see a another boat being build from the 'Swipe wipes' mould; remember watching it take shape in 2007/2008.

Look forward to seeing it take shape, will you be fitting out the cabin or leaving it natural?

Yeah I will go with small/light cabin
I would love to leave it as a light racer but I will use it mainly as a pleasure boat so small cabin would be great addition

Hope to race it some day but still can't afford to have to boats. One for racing and one for pleasure boating :-)

Just before the weekend we have finished deck with a lot of puzzle worko in tight places around the cockpit and windshield. We have put some plywood where there gonna be cleats or hinges. Also plywood under the dashboard

It's slowly start to look like a 5 seater. I will have some polishing work after I put it out of the mould to clean places where we made some changes.

Also manage to laminate 5 longits. Should be tough enough for some big waters like Solent Bay or south coast of UK I would love to go there some time in the future with that boat :-D
We have covered wooden longits with vinyloester resin for better waterresistance

Some update pics

Main structure is made from douglas fir but everything else is made from foam to make it a bit lighter
Stainless steel fuel tank is in, floor is in, berths are in. Everything is ready to take her out from the mould. Hope to make it tomorrow

Officially its a 5 seater at the moment
Still enough space to put single or twin inboard engines side by side

Yeah I know its really dirty. We just finished cutting laminate and didn't clean it from the dust

Hello, I have been following the build with much interest - great work.

Would you have a price for a hull to take two inboards or two outboards ?
Many thanks
James
