Now the hull.
The frames are just a jig and get removed. Later strategic frames/bulkheads get fitted. One close-up shows where the keel fixings come through carbon tubes.

Sorry life got in the way so no update. I will try and catch up.
This is the keel. Made a plug out of MDF rings. Spun it up with electric drill and blended its shape with a flap disc in my angle grinder. Made a box to cast silicon in and then with the plug removed I cast the lead. Keel fin is marine ply. Fixings into hull are 2 M6 studs and an 8mm diameter carbon rod. It weighs in at 8.5kg.
