Front bulkhead

I glued in the front bulkhead today!

Important!! Use silicone to glue it in place and not epoxy! The air inside the sealed of space in the fordeck will expand with heat, if you epoxy the bulkhead in place then you will see a line going around the hull along the bulkhead joint because the epoxy does not give.




Will be sending the boat to get painted at the end of the month ... still a few more details to sort out.

I'm building a twin Mhz Mystic (same lenght as HPR). Do you have a line art of bulkhead in order to make one for Mystic.

Thank you in advance

Sorry, I dont have a trace of that part and since its already glued into the hull I cant easily make one.

Secondly the hulls are probably different enough that it wont fit snugly.

Surely you can get the line art directly from Mhz?
