Progress pics
Some pictures of the progress:
This is a good illustration of how hard it is to take photos of the interior. Everything is covered in tools, and unpainted surfaces are ugly.
8 mm stainless steel. 200 M5 machine screws. 13 mm thick polycarbonate. Will it hold up to the furious waves of the outer skerries of the Stockholm archipelago this summer. Probably.
The good thing about flush deck. The dighy takes up no space at all. Maybe we are going to take down the work bench while sailing, though.
The bow rollers will be bolted to the mahoghany. We will need some sort of pulpit as well to be able to climb up the bow.
That’s all folks!

Yes, the neighbor boats have really thin frames. Like 3 mm. But this really shines.

I’m guessing it was just slightly cheaper than the artistic bronze alternative. Am I right?

Probably. Bronze just wasn’t possible if we wanted ports in the steering station this summer.
