Forward Bulkheads...

The bulkheads are covered with a lighter weight fiberglass cloth than the hull strakes.  Here are the forward bulkheads and some other panels laid out on the table to be fiberglassed.  Both sides will be skinned and sanded before adding to the boat structure.



Here is the forward most bulkhead being positioned in the hull.


A view looking forward at the first three bulkheads with lazer alignment.  The bulkheads are attached to the hull strakes with #18 wire ties.


Looking aft.


The forward bulkhead has been glued to the hull strakes with thickened epoxy.  The size of the fillet will eventually be increased to a radius of 15 - 20 mm.
