Hull Rotation
Ten people gathered out of curiosity to turn the two constructed hulls up the right way. The exercise took 40 mins per hull with lots of laughter in between the more serious side to the job.
On the count of three start to roll it onto its side. 1, 2, 3 !

Two hulls up the right way just needing to be moved apart and levelled
Levelled and spaced, now to keep building. First the frames 3,5, 7 and 9, then the bridgedeck. Time to get more 6m lengths of hoop pine, 9mm marine ply, epoxy resin and cavasil glue powder for the building ahead.
As we live a distance from the main source of these items, we keep it all stocked in the shed. So building commences immediately.
