Hi, My next update on Katie, I have now fitted the last deck member at the Bow but left the last one at the Stern so i have more room to fit other things in the hull. I have also fitted the 555 Motor and Propshaft etc and repaired the rear part of Keel that i had to cut away to fit everything.

Hi All, Sorry not much been going on last week because i have been really rough for the last week and been tested three times so far but still negative i am glad to say. I have done a little to the framework in the hull around the upper Mast support and the surrounding framework for the rear large Hatch area where i need to think about fitting some of the radio kit and leaving enough room for getting to the motor etc. Hopefully i will get some more done in the week also can anyone help with the boom picture of the plan i need some help with either making a gooseneck fitting like it using a more modern version, what do you think?.
