As promised here are a few photos of the updates.
Firstly a photo since we removed the peel ply on the underside of the wings. This should stiffen up the join where the wing extensions were added and also replaces the laminate which I sanded through in order to get to the hidden paint! You can't see the little spots where we stiffened up the hull, but we are very pleased with how it has turned out.
I carefully removed the stump in order to get access to the floor underneath it, just to check that all was in order there. Didn't want to beef up the floor only to find out that there was some soggy foam underneath! All seems pretty stiff and solid under there so that is a result.
In order to fix the crack in the floor under the foredeck I routed out to remove the top skin and also the foam, and then cut round to leave a nice ledge to bond in the replacement panels which are coming from a fresh sheet of foam. The 'crack' actually turned out to be a join in 2 pieces of foam which hadn't been bonded together properly and so there was a near 4mm wide gap where the skins were unsupported and had turned into a bit of a colander. Kate kindly helped to template the holes so that we could laminate up the replacement panels from home as the whole sheet of foam is just too big to try and transport with the Punto!
This evening I have laminated the new panels, made the template for the new transom beam and also scratched my head a lot about how to make the sheet of foam stretch far enough to do everything we need from it! Patchwork foredeck here we come!
