1695.5Hrs- Tumblehome Saga Ending
Unbelievably its been over a year since I originally started on construction of the tumblehomes, talk about dragging a job out! Today though I re-cut and re-fitted the ones on the port hull and they are now ready to glue. It was all relatively painless and if I knew then what I know now I wouldn’t have wasted so much time. But there’s no point moaning, they’re nearly done now and I can move on to more exciting things. Despite being on my own today I managed to manhandle the completed cabin deck section down onto the floor so that I could sand it and get the first coat of epoxy on. If I can keep this pace up I should have both deck sections glued in place next week and I can make a start on the raised doghouse sides.

It’d be cool to see a picture with you in it to give a better sense of scale. It’s only in a couple of these pictures when I compare the boat to the tent or ladder that I really started to appreciate how big this thing is.
Nice work!
