I have also started on the starboard hull Stem core .
This this the base structure for the stem and is made mostly from 40 x 150 kauri , additional lamination's of solid timber are added to the sides of this structure to build up to what is required . Its also reinforced by a plywood center-line frame , in the port hull we made this from 18mm ply , but I was not happy in the way this was connected to the stem core so in this hull I have changed to a box type frame made from 9mm sheet ply and solid timber , the ply will go both sides of the timber structure and attaches easily to the stem core ( only one side affixed in this picture ) as the core and the frame are the same width .
The last time I built one of these was 28 months ago , who's idea was it to build a bloody catamaran ,
Talk about Deja Vu !!
