Port Hull Evolution as of 13 February 2013

We have installed all of the bulkheads, stringers, and completed skinning the port hull.  The keel has been capped, and the caps properly shaped and smoothed.   We applied five layers of fiberglass over the keel, and up over the waterline, and the outboard side of the hull has had the full fiberglass layer applied and the first coat of fairing compound applied ( it is drying and will be ready for rasping and sanding on Monday morning ( it is Saturday 13 February 2016 as I write this ).

We must do one side at a time like this, because we have to remove the scaffolding in order to apply the fiberglass and fair it up.   We must have at least one scaffold on the hull so that we are able to reach the areas that we have to work on.   Once we get one side completed, we will re-install the scaffolding on the completed side, remove the other scaffold, apply the fiberglass, go through the several iterations of fairing that side, then we simply remove the scaffolding altogether, and fill and fair the resulting holes, etc.
