Week 6

Monday- Applied another layer of glass on the forward part of the hull which the team had some trouble with applying because of the rapid shape change of the hull.  Definatelty a bit tougher than the last 3.  Cut and glued together the cockpit sole oversized.

Tuesday- Todays main objectives were to get the cocpit sole fit to size and beveled to the right shape and to get the gerder vaccumed.





Wednesday- Today we had to determain where the bulkheads are and where the transom will come up to by putting the steal straight edges on the top of the hull on the forward side of the frames and further forward more to allow for the thickness of the transom and two sides of resin and glass. also that day we had to get the cockpit sole glassed up on one side because the foam that we used has holes in it. The reason we had to glass one side before hand is because of the holes in the foam, if we do not have one side already glassed or covered we would not be able to get a vaccum.
