I turned a couple of toggles on my lathe, and then (with some help) moved the boat into the shed for the time being. I need to sand the epoxy flat and varnish the deck, and also paint the hull and cockpit.
I have stopped obsessing, and have ordered the kit from Fyne Boats. My garage is just long enough for the build (I hope), and the garden shed is just big enough to accommodate the completed kayak (I hope). The finished craft should look something like the photo.
This is the last major piece of fibre glassing - the inside of the deck. I trimmed the bottom of the coaming first with a saw and then an electric file - not a very enjoyable job, but it came out OK, I think.
