Cockpit Lockers





deciding how to organize the cockpit lockers for practicality (sizes) and max weight reduction (min material). The emergency compartment is next with two hatches - one from cockpit side, another from hull side, (for accessing when capsized!).

Moving forward again... beam mounts









Finally we have things moving forward again, however Toivo is currently dealing with the challenges re setting up the beam mounts.
Sheet 20- it is not easy to cut the slots, because the drawing is flat, while the hull is curved. Beam bulkhead trim- the drawing shows "arms" left in the middle of the cut away area. No dimensions, and it is hard to mark, using beam mount. What radius to use?
