At last the awning is installed and just in time for summer. As soon as the shade material was pulled over the support structure the temperature under the hull dropped and working conditions improved. Once the grout under the supports cures we will be ready to turn the hull. This event will probable be left until after the New Year as I have some other activities planned and the hull is safe and dry while it is upside down.
Today I cut and fitted the three shelves in the front berth ante room. They are grouted to the hull ready to be epoxied to the hull with a couple of layers of 475 gram double bias cloth. Then there are cleats to be glued to the shelf edges and the whole area primed with International Interprotect before fitting the locker front.
