I have neglected to update this blog for a few months. We have been working hard on the fitout inside, so there has been little to show or talk about. Progress is slow and fiddly compared to the fast progress you see with construction.
One hull is almost complete, and we have started the painting inside. As soon as that paint is finished, the deck is ready to go on, and then the turret roof on top of the saloon.
Days are short. Nights are cold. So fewer hours end get spent at the shed. Days are getting longer again, so more work will be completed over the next months.
I have added a couple of entries over the past two days, and promise to add a few more, too.
Looking great. I have only built a one sheet canoe but about to start on a small cat when I came across your build blog.
Do you have an idea of costs so far and final guess?
This is no harder than a one sheet canoe; just bigger.
The basic Hull/deck/fitout is working out at about $20k, and we are working on around $100k for the completed boat.
