There is progress! Having the "boathouse" has definitely sped up my work. The front step is all glassed in. I made ledger boards along the leading edge out of divinycell and 1708, then used thickened vinyl ester to bond the step to the hull. The last step was to attach it all along the edges with 2 layers of 1708 after a slight fillet with thickened resin. Also the cap has been reattached with a liberal amount of 5200 and 1/4" rivets with back up washers. Its starting to look like a boat again!

Next on the list is a pair of transom boxes. I plan to make a similar setup as "Mark's 1971 CC" that is in the photo section of the site. That is what that other picture is from. I just love the clean and simple look of that boat.
