Ever since we flipped the boat, work has been slow. There hasn't been a lot of work to go around, and so everyone has been working slowly. Today, Stefan, Matt and I masked the entire exterior and interior of the boat in preparation for the matting of the deck and hull. First, the deck will be glued to the hull and allowed to cure. Then it will be tapped into place with layers of bi axial, 90, and then twill. A day latter, the bulkheads will be filleted. Once that cures, we can tab the bulkheads. Because the deck joint has been hard to align, we were not able glue the joint today. This has set the entire process back multiple days.

In other news, my lunch box is quite the item around work. Many people remember the style from their youth.  It appears that I am missing the matching thermos, but that I might be able to find it at staples. One of the painters, a member of the safety committee got me stickers to put on it.


Unfortunately, according to the safety man, the stickers are in violation of OSHA.... Supposedly the company would be fined for me storing food in a container that is labeled FLAMMABLE LIQUID.   So I will take off the stickers for tomorrow, but first:
