Closing Up
The weather has continued good and great progress has been made in the last week. I spent a good deal of time reworking the angle of the front panels and framing curves to hopefully improve the overall appearance. The window is one of a pair of Bomar parallelograms I bought in July. It's a slightly different look than is commonly seen and I may need to work something else out later. I made the front side panels from 2 pieces of ply otherwise it would take nearly 2/3 a sheet to get just these two pieces.

The big top
Quite good progress was made in the last week. It proved quite tricky to handle the giant piece of foam and figure out how to hold it in place whilst I glass the inside joints.
wide open
You can see why I was eager to get on with the cabin top. I really wanted to minimize the amount of rain water into the boat.

Inch by Inch
I was actually surprised how relatively easy it is to still move the boat on PVC pipe. I ended up pulling with a ratchet strap, but I can just move it with brute force. I need to pick up some concrete blocks this morning to block the bow up level and pull here out about another 8' today to clear bulkhead 5 on the roof.
