Another step forward

Put the foredeck on today, needed about 60 screws to hold it down. As it is only 6mm ply it tends to bulge and in places where the curve is tightest the screws are less than 100mm apart.
A bit disappointed with the paint I have bought for the boat, the primer is supposedly light grey but it is very much darker than the web page indicates and the off white topcoat doesn’t cover very well. Even with two coats of topcoat it is still streaky.
Now I have to clean up inside the hull, sand it down, fill along the tapes and then prime and topcoat it before I fit the side decks.
