Forward cabin

On Monday I added a further layer of glass to the forward cabin sole, to make life easier I made it in sections as the first layer but cut them in such a way that the joints between the sections were overlapped. I spent the rest of the week filling and fairing paying particular attention to the fillets between the sole and the upstand.

Second application just requires sanding

I took a chance and ordered some green beige RAL1000 gelcoat from East Coast Fibreglass Supplies which arrived on Wednesday. The colour chart on the website looked to be a good match to the existing, yes I know on screen colour rendition can't always be relied on but I took a chance. I haven't opened the tin yet to check, that will be a job for Monday.
