Bedecked

 

The deck is now fully 'stripped' and I am starting to shape with planes and a scraper prior to sanding. The wood around the front of the cockpit opening was under a lot of strain, and I had several splits along the glue lines. I have fixed these with thickened epoxy, and once this has set everything should be stable. 

There are a couple of spots where the strips are not level and I have glued in a some extra strips which I will shape later. I used the spare thickened epoxy to fill some small gaps, and the nail holes.

Also, I have decided that a rear hatch makes sense, so I have changed the planned bulkhead positions a bit.
