If you pee on it first it'll neutralize the chemicals, right? That's what I heard . . .

Na... I don't like to hire out. I'll drink the beer and pee on it myself.

Thanks for the offer of the documents, Par. They'll come in handy. I'll send you a PM with my email.

Just don't become a diabetic beer drinker; you'll sink the cat.

While we are talking about beer and off subject, well beer can be a part of any subject I suppose. I dont see a place on the forums to talk about winches , hardware ect., have you started shopping around yet. I cant start my build yet so I, ve been surfing ebay and craigslist , might as well buy now before inflation kicks in. I,ve bought two new andersen winches so far.Any one place to buy from? rick

I'm not familiar with the design or your method of moving hull parts around but could you fit a full width bulkhead in place on your current half hull and drop that hull with the bulkheads into your form with the second half hull in place when constructed and join the bulkheads in place then? You would need a reasonable crane to do that of course. Just musing and there could be a slew of reasons why that isnt possible.
