All change for Forward heads.
Big changes and progress in our forward heads compartment. Just 79 days left of our 100 day to launch challenge.
Adapting a loan ladder for boat jobs.
We have 82 days left of our 100 day to launch challenge. Busy day. Returned hire car this morning and did food shopping. Then adapted a fantastic loan ladder - more like a staircase :-) The goal is to be able to move it around the boat to give great access for jobs.
Awesome window progress, more horrible weather. Countdown day 86/100
Despite many heavy hail showers we made great progress. Both forecabin windows are fully bolted in. The first forward heads window is fully dry fitted. The boards to hold in the insulation are marked. Also we have had a big clear up and the forecabin is full as organised storage.

Window frames Progress.
Countdown Day 92 of our "100 days to launch" challenge.
A big start on the interior window frames. Worked on the two for the forecabin and preparation for others. This should stop the gel coat crazing by adding stiffness. Plus it edges and supports the insulation.
Countdown Day 93 of our "100 days to launch" challenge.
We really struggle with applying fibreglass to the underside of things, especially when the shapes are awkward and space is tight. So today was difficult but is done - glassing in the the new deck beam to strengthen the bulkhead where for the inner forestay and windlass loads.
Countdown Day 94 of our "100 days to launch" challenge.
A big job today as we fit the new deck beam to strengthen the bulkhead where for the inner forestay and windlass loads.
