Forward bulkhead

[chriselk]

We are putting in a transom bait well, not a large one. We made plywood forms for bending the foam. If you recall, we have about a 13 degree angle, so we had to make the bottom form smaller front to back dimension, but the same curve as the top.

We scored the foam vertically on the corners where we wanted to bend about 2/3rds thru. At this stage you gotta be careful not to break. We screwed down the foam and glass the inside and out with two layers of 17 oz. Then we could remove it and it was solid. Then we cut the top and bottom from the plywood foams, tabbed, etc. Now just a lot of finish work. Note, we did round the back corners as we did not want to kill the pogies. The later pictures you can see Richard dry fitting the baitwell along the transom top, which he matched.
