Eclipse Build Pictures 2016
Starboard
Hull after 4 or 5in some areas of Synergy coppercoat again painted to design
waterline plus 5 inches
Bulkhead 4 Butt and strap joined with the door portal acquiring 3 thicknesses of 9mm ply to make it look sturdy enough to support a door.
Port
Bow painted, just shows what a lot of time you can waste with filler and sanding
boards
The
photo doesn't do the paint justice, it has a stunning shine.. Port Hull painted
with 3 coats of 2 pack Acrylic rolled on, it covers waterline to non slip
deck line all the way round apart from under the Bridgedeck which I will do
at a later date
The starboard Hull is now painted same as the port 3 coats of 2 pack acrylic, this took place sometime in August when I was happy with the filled surface.
In this shot the access hole in the cockpit floor has been filled and the sole support pieces have been bonded in, the fancy blue will never be seen and it uses up epoxy watertank paint the would otherwise be wasted.
The sole is now bonded and the rear lockers can be glued in along with generous radius fillets for the 300gram glass that will line the cockpit sole. Cockpit drains will be 1,1/2"sink drains in thin stainless suitably countersunk into the floor. ..
