Update

It's been over a month since I did an update.  I've worked a lot of hours, at work, you know, my day job; but have also gotten a lot done of the boat.  Remeber, it's winter, even here, it doesn't get warm out to work until later in the morning.  By then it's almost time to got to work.  So, it's been kind of slow going.
I guess the pictures are kind of backwards.  I installed the galley bulkhead after the motor mounts.
I finished all four motor mounts. Those things are really solid. I believe the boat could do a 360 roll and the motor mounts would hold fast. Unlike the old one I took out.












I got the entire Port side floor glassed in place. (only have picture of the aft section)










Before installing the Galley aft bulkhead I took  trip north to see my grand kids. It's to bad there's so much highway between her and there; those growing up years pass so quickly.



You as a viewer probably can't see anything different, but I, having breathed resin for 2 hours can.  Friday I sanded and Saturday I layed 3 layers of fiberglass on the Port cabin-top side.  When I first got the boat I removed those awful, huge, bad sealing excuse for a port light and set plugs in the holes grinding and glassing in just around the edges.  Now, with the layers on glass in the inside I can sit in the new portlight mounts and get ready to insulate.  .... it's really starting to take shape .... :-)
