These are just a few photos to show how it looks the right way up. In the background you can see the drug sub and the recycled boat.
This is Russell and his grandson Dominic. Russell helped with the lay up of glass.

tiny tug part 13
The stern view of the glassed hull.
More of the same.
Looking up at the stern from what will be the top.
Looking up at the front from what will be the top. My Mate Russel came over and we laid up the entire boat in three layers in four hours. The resin caused ripples in the putty and the whole thing will have to be sanded again to get a good finish for the mould but all is not lost as this will be the first boat from the mould.

tug boat part12
More sanding takes time and is getting closer.
Couldn't help myself for seven dollars both compressor and angle grinder. Both work. I need a bigger shed.

The above shows all the planking done and more filler applied and sanded.
Still a few blemishes to get done.
The stern showing the lines this is how the old timers used to make there boats. No plans just a half model. If it looked right it was right. The shadows give the wrong impression of the lines
