Bulkheads and Hullsides
Thank for the input Frizz and Jorge, always much appreciated.
Slowly making some progress. Got two bulkheads in on either side of the tank, with drainage holes on the aft bulkhead. The PVC pipe took the place of the old center stringer and allows for drainage from the forward compartment.
We stole a page directly out of Billy the Kids build, and went with balsa core on the hull sides with csm and 1708. Balsa was bedded in with none other than Joe Merton's "Hull & Deck" The hull sides stiffened up nicely! This job was a lot of work but really happy with the way it turned out.
