Thank you Dreadnaught
. Hi there, the pre fitted bulwarks extend down below deck level bit more strength , then braced into position prior to fitting the staunchon post ( a lot quicker than fitting all the post then planking, as they say horses for courses ? ) , after fitting each post ,then glue a dowel on the post edge which fits through the deck for extra strength.On the corners of the transom's bulwarks fitted tapered pieces to aquire the curve, same as was done below deck area on the transom's corners.The next 2 photo's show what can and does happen when you have a brain fade moment
,had the model laying on it's side on the table just finished fitting thelast tappered corner sections turned and walked about 5 ft (was a bit windy that day) had gust of wind come in and she rolled off the table with an a;mighty bang when she bounced on the cement, was expecting the worst but luckily she only damaged the S.b side on her shoulder in front of the wave braker, had to fix the side rail bulwark and section of deck
. When I went up top for a coffee my Lovely wanted to know what the loud crash was , told her , her remark was how come I didn't hear you swear, said yeah surprised myself to
...So once again have proven that as you get older you don't get smarter
...cheers.
