Here she is epoxy coated on the inside and having the cabin top mocked up to see how it might look. You can see the outline of the epoxy on the bulkhead that shows the high cambered top that should give enough headroom and increase the righting moment if the boat were to be knocked down.

I’ve also started the construction of the cockpit which will have a self draining footwell, (it’s not high enough above the waterline to be called self bailing) and self bailing from the seats up as there will be large scuppers port and starboard.
