As we worked forward, fitting out along the starboard side from back to front, the deck stringers became an issue.
Long lengths of the 43×19 stringers are required for the deck, and numerous short lengths are required for internal fitout. So, to make sure that the best timbers are retained for the deck, putting on the deck became the next job. The internal fitout can be completed with the offcuts.
The deck can’t be completed yet, because the fore decks have to go on the bow of each hull first, but those foredecks can’t go on until the forebeam that joins the bow is fitted, and that forebeam can’t go on because I have been waiting for stainless fittings that have to get glassed in. There is a long weekend coming up, and all the materials are now available.
