Progress has been made and I have commenced work on the decking. I had planed to use Teak but after locating some decided it was too dark for my liking, so I will be using the much lighted Tasmanian Oak.


With the hull the correct way up and the power plant fitted it is beginning to look like more like the real thing.

Cutting the Oak int 8mm strips.

Milling the strips down to 6.4mm

And gluing together for the fore deck.


I trial fore deck from scrap timber to sus out the making process.
