Made a start on the wheelhouse tonight and finished cutting and filing the wash ports as it was to cold for spraying the hull, deck sprayed though with textured grit spray...

Not much done today, had to start decorating.. {:-{  Rudder made though with base support bolted into the hull and reinforcement to the rudder post in the hull, first attempt at the rudder post sleeve was in plastic pipe only to find it was to brittle and after a few turns of the rudder it snapped, so out came the plastic and in went a stainless replacement..

I popped round to check on progress on Sunday, looking good! He's only got a small room to decorate so that's no excuse. I'm doing some bits and bobs for him so should be finished by next Sunday!  {-) {-) {-)

All window frames fitted long with exhausts, took quite a whlie to fill and sand the flying bridge, looking a bit more like a lifeboat now   :-))
