Speedboat repairs

Now that the new transom panel is glued in position the rest of the rebuilding of the structure of interior bracing can take place.

Gluing the first part of the fore and aft bulkhead can be glued into position along the bottom edge before upper edge as its bracing members fitted and glued into position and up the transom to stop the aft edge moving 


The front edge will be braced on both sides once the bottom edge glue as cured and the lower bracing batten is glued into position


The lower edge glued and pressure applied to hold it in position while the glue cures over night then in the morning the rest of the bracing can be fitted  


The starboard side transom panel glued into position and fixed with clamps and a few temporary fixings 



Once this transom panel glue is cured then the rest of the rebuilding of this side can continue with a small panel fitted to the fore and aft bulkhead and the top bracing refitted and then the hull panelling can be started to be dry fitted before refitting
