Glueing the vaka (1)

This week end we managed to devote a couple of hours to the boat. This morning we started to glue up the main hull (vaka) but run out of time so we didn't glue the transom, which we'll do next time.

We first inserted some spreaders at the bulkheads to keep the hull shape when the bulkheads are removed


Then we glued the bulkheads to the cleats using the usual microfiber thickened resin and sheetrock screws


and we did the same with the stem 


And here's a final view from the bow


Total work time to date: 256 hours
