Cornish Crabber repars getting underway with the centreboard re-instating

Grinding down the bottom edge from its full thickness to a 3 mm edge so that it can be glassed up back in position after the hull side is grind back the same way. 


Then the edges will be re-glassed into position  using the original layup that was used when she was build, however, this time the centreboard plate will have a larger pin and the centreboard will be reinforced in the area of the centreboard pin and along the joint where it was cut out of the boat.


The bottom of the hull needs a good clearing out and then I can start grinding down the hull in the area of the centreboard case so it can be glassed back into position.


Then I will be starting to build the chain locker bulkhead and fit the deck beams
