 Cockpit coaming risers glued and filleted, 
Transom drain holes cut

The cockpit risers were glued and screwed in -  they were also coated with their final coat of epoxy before they were installed and the coaming lids had their final coat of epoxy before the riser was glued in,they had some fillets done as well -  the riser was filleted to the cockpit seat and the transom with a large structural fillet







cockpit riser to transom fillet


the holes to take the 50mm epoxy glass drain tube was cut in the transom and in the front face of the lazarette.

 Cockpit coaming tops glued and filleted


these are the "lids" for the under coaming storage lockers - They are done !!!, this was the most difficult glueup so far, as the access is not easy and glue cleanup and fillets were done in some pretty tight compartments in really awkward positions, boat yoga ??? - backwards downward dog is easy by comparison.









 NMEA connections and the low power interior lights Just some futher pictures from the last few weeks all the NMEA connections are contained...
