Flip the Hull

 Making the Turn

The gunwale moldings are installed. The entire topsides was sanded, and another coat of epoxy was added. This morning the hull was flipped over so work can begin on the bottom. That will include filling the joints with thickened epoxy, applying fiberglass tape over them. Then the entire bottom will be covered with fiberglass cloth and finished out. There will be much sanding in the process.

Oak gunwale moldings installed. They will be finished natural.
