The Cornish Crabber's centreboard case starting to be glassed back into the boat hull


The Cornish Crabber's centreboard case finally getting glassed back into position in the bottom of the boat. Just many layers of interwoven roving mat and CSM to be glassed in to build the layers back to the original specification and then a few more to be on the safe side. 


The fitting of the spacers inside the centreboard case was done with the help of a friend and former apprentice of mine.  

He is the person who has started the ball rolling so that on Monday I can start to build up the layers of fibreglass until there are enough layers to the fit the two pairs of triangular webs to brace the forward end of the centreboard case with the pivot is located.
