We decided to take a weekend getaway this past weekend, so didn't get any work done on the boat.
I was able to get some small items done last week. As you will find if you are building, there are a lot of small little projects, that really don't show a lot of progress, but are necessary. I usually try to work a couple hours multiple days of the week. I can usually get one or two small tasks completed in a session.
I also moved my epoxy inside and plan to use smaller containers instead of the 5 gallon containers that come with the epoxy kit. It is starting to get cold in Virginia. I will fill up smaller containers of resin and hardner that I can move inside, so they will stay warm. I have an old bucket that has a top that I plan to use to move back and forth into the garage.

Installing the cross cleats to support the deck. Also had to cut out the notches on bulkhead #8. |

Port side deck supports epoxied in place. Note the notch for the other cross support. |

Starboard deck support on Bulkhead #8. I would recommend cutting a little smaller. I had to use some chimes to hold it in place. |

Rear bottom footwell support on transom screwed and epoxied in place. |
