The Cornish Crabber centreboard case finally going back in again, it should never have been taken out.

The hull now all ground back to get it ready to start to fibreglass it back into position 

Now that it is ground back the first thing to do is put spacers in the centreboard case slot to keep the edges in position while glassing up the joint.

Now the centreboard case is in position, it as to be braced from both sides to ensure it is up right and centred in position 

Once it is in the correct position, then it time to make up two sets of braces either side of the pivot point to take the stress through the boat at this point. 


Once the centreboard case is in position the deck beams can be positioned to be over the raised part of the centreboard case to take the stresses from the top of the centreboard when the yacht is sailing
