Bedding the Beams

Bedding the beams in a mixture of thick epoxy and cabosil, then drilling the hole for the retaining studs. I am using 1/4-20 X 3.5 inch SS threaded rod for the studs, these are lighter then I used in my last 18sq meter but I think they have adequate pull out strength.

All work will stop when Les is out of town.

Well it's back to South America again.
For corporate reasons it's an undisclosed location.
I expect to be working on the boat next week.

Cut the beams.

Cut the beams and made the cradles to hold the hulls in place while the resin sets when I bed the beams.
