Interior painted with two part epoxy primer barrier coat before the decking is attached.

Deck is attached got a 4oz fiberglass layer to help smooth it all out.

For sails, we ordered kits from https://www.sailrite.com — nicely prepared kits for a great price. The crew got together to tape them up, and our master sewist stitched them together (and even put in some windows).

We officially have 5 boats underway! Here are two of the furthest along and the fifth boat taking shape!

We plan to put together our sails using a kit from SailRite, but we still need sail numbers and the frosty logo for our sails. It turns out that my budget Acmer S1 laser engraver can perfectly cut insignia adhesive backed fabric!

With a little help from some friends, the first boat starts to get stitched together!

It looks right, but something is off. The boat only measures 70″ long, and it should be 76″. Hmm… maybe it will expand overnight.
