The last pieces of inner hull:




And the pieces for the stern:







The stern is ready:


The inner hull is finished

Yep 1,87 meters


There are 7 big pieces:

That have to be glued together with a lot of little pieces of paper:

Yep!!

And I did it last week
Cut out the skin:


And get some help from my cat "Noortje"


The first piece was glued on after serval times dry fitting:


And so on and on and on and......




There's her name:


The sides were a little difficult but i managed it.


Until there was only one piece left:


And so the skin is glued over the inner hull.

Thanks guys, it was not to hard and the skin fits "easily".

The next step was to check the laser parts and there was a little problem.
There where no numbers printed with the parts and normally they are.
So yesterday I send a message to JSC and this morning at 8:30 the send me a PDF with the numbers and letters.
Great service from JSC!
