work on seats, and fitting the foredeck

Shown here are the blind fillets for the aft seats. These are done by taping the lid in place with some plastic tape along the edge, and then filleting around the edge. Once the fillet has cured the seat top is removed and you have this fillet bonded into place. It's a bit tricky but it turned out well. Second photo is the sides of the aft seat installed, after those have cured the seat tops can be permanently installed.

Added the foredeck supports as well. Did some varnishing on the random pieces from the boat.

And finally got to fitting the foredeck in place. This was a long process of kind of fitting into place, seeing where the fit was too tight, removing, block planning, and repeating several times. It's now fitted and one step closer to being ready to install.

And the foils are now sanded and ready to be glassed.
