Laminating cb-case. Transom work continues

Small steps in the right direction: laminating insides of the centerboard case. As specified in plans I apply thick epoxy layer, armed with heavy-woven glass fiber.

One half of the case got NM Laminating Epoxy which I had left after Safir Motoko renovation. The rest was done with WEST material. As a first layer it went rather well.

I keep the mold girder open to use it as a bench for these jobs. Not much space left inside the shed.

I roughly shaped the transom timber crown and planed it to the right thickness, to match the plywood part. Gluing third layer on my workshop bench.
This third layer will substitute plywood doubler which is supplied with the kit. So I’m making a reverse version of a rabbet, for gluing to the transom. The aim is to save myself some work and to have solid-wood transom which I can finish bright with varnish or oil.

Next steps:

cleaning centerboard case from epoxy spills, grinding high spots and one more layer of epoxy
trimming wood trim on bulkheads and plywood stem
final shaping of the transom crown and gluing into plywood transom
marking and plaining transom bevels
