Still at it.

New

Still at it. Been smearing fairing compound here and there.. phenolic microballoons, cab-o-sil, and epoxy mostly after running out of my stock of West's 410. Got the pads for the lifeline stanchions done, got foam toe-rails installed, winch pads done (just have 2 for now), and net attachment pvc bonded onto hulls.

Now I'm about ready for primer.. need to sand the old primer down first. And I'm pondering my steering. Thinking I would like a car/track on back beam with rigid pipe from that to each rudder. Haven't figured out how I would do it yet though. Easiest was a connecting bar across the top of that back beam, but with my aft hatches now that conflicts - wouldn't be able to open them. Also the tiller arms from the rudders would have to stop at the beam since I'll have a corner stanchion thing there the arms would conflict with. So..
