Its been a few days since I last posted. Really bad weather and high wind has left me indoors.

I did manage to get an hour here and there.

I had made a mistake in not allowing for an upright and welded the roof girder directly to the transom wall. Silly me!. it took an hour a side to remove them because the grinder wont fit in there. Bought extra long blades for my sabre saw and went at it.

All sorted now and I also fitted the correct stiffening pieces to the transom wall. There are some more modifications to follow to strengthen the aft roof and transom wall to support Davitts for lifting a dingy and outboard engine. I want them winch lifted with the motors under the swimdeck. I have it worked out. should be nice when done.

pics to follow:
