Where do you plan to put your extra bulkhead? It needs one for sure forward of the forward tank bulkhead.

Practicality and timing will dictate this to a degree, but I intend to put it forward of the forward tank/cockpit sole bulkhead. If I have the time, I hope to put the foam trapezoids in after I gritblast a clean spot. I might lay a layer of 1708 over them with peel ply and leave the peel ply. If I get a bulkhead cut out in time, I will install it, else I leave the peel down. It will likely be in an area that I can reach from the two false bottom lockers under the bunks. Reach from both sides for installing the tabbing. One false bottom is yet to be created. The port side exists.
That way I can install and tab at my leisure. At least with respect to schedule, if not comfort.
It will be a low half bulkhead, not all the way to the cabin floor, I think. (I haven't measured yet.) But enough to keep the stringers from collapsing inward from slamming loads. I hope.
