 Making bunk supports, cutting bow access hatch, and divider for the cargo compartment


Spent the day making templates and cutting out the supports for the bunks, and also a divider for the "cargo" area, in front of the mast bulkhead, decided to make a longitudinal divide as it then creates a strong backbone that ties the front crash flotation bulkhead and the mast compression post and bulkhead together. It also makes a divider so that stuff does not go sliding side to side depending on which  tack you are on, it is also at the same level as the 2 main bunks, and the port or starboard side will possibly get a top, maybe both will?

 Also cut the front collision flotation bulkhead access hatch, you can see the hatch cutouts leaning against the mast bulkhead, these will be made into sealing watertight hatches, later.
