7 November 2010 Update
Engine under hatch, fits with room to spare.
Exhaust manifolds now arrived and fitted.
Deck battens ready for gluing.
Boat overall so far. Sides to be varnished with deck. The
mahogany strips at the sheer were not fitted until upright
when it was easier to position the planking screws into the
sheer.
Not a lot of progress during the last few months as someone
thought my time was better spent renovating the bathroom and
toilet.
