bilge rat's

So I pulled the diesel's out for a painting and to swap some stainless bolts on the flex plate to hardend steel. Then I also covered the whole bilge with awlgrip cloud wight same color as the top side and it stuck to every thing even the kevlar engine bunks awlgrip is good stuff brushed it out unreduced and gave me killer coverage.. I am close too splash down now... just have to have the shafts polished and put in the salon doors, interior, the ac/dc system and do a final fitment of the tower....


if you look close at the edge of the salon floor you can still see the nomex honeycomb,,, it the only place I used it, light and strong but I can sell it for much more then I can buy nomex and like the plastic core systems just a much better for marine use. I set it up so the engine room hatches have there under pining built in this leaves the floor 100% composit and saves me 1000lbs or so also it is much stronger then the patch work of plywood and hardwood under pining. there are no screws to rot away, but the best part is that when all 3 hatches are opened there is no need to crawl or duck you'll be able to walk around the engines
