Running Hardware install

Between yesterday and today(july 29th and 30th) I installed the running hardware(the rudders, and the shafts) so the boat will be able to move. I didn't take a picture of the holes i had to make but they weren't that pretty... I used 5 min epoxy on the stuffing boxes to hold them in place and placed woodfiller around them.


Goals for the weekend:
-Sand the filler to the shape of the hull
-Re place glass resin on the hull(where the shafts were installed)

-Get primer on the hull/deck

-Build the big stuff off of the super structure

I was going to upload all the pictures however, I can only do one at a time, so from now on I will be posting pictures up here on a basis when ever I work on my ship. Let me know if you have any questions!

Uss Crockett

Hey guys, I figured I would start a blog for my ship(USS Crockett) that I am building. It is much easier to follow my progress than just posting pictures on facebook (which I will still do). I just started the blog today, I will catch it up later today and post new pictures of my ship. I was on vacation the last week and unable to work on it.
