Drascombe Dabber VICTORY 14 Dec 17 Float Test, Floorboard and Forward Seat

14 Dec 17:

Trimmed the middle cleat to clear the centreplate case flange with a circular saw.



Cut the forward seat to width and beveled the edges to fit with a circular saw.


Trimmed the transom cap to fit with a belt sander, 60 grit and a random orbital sander.


Float test, small leak forward of the keel strip, appears to be coming from a stem strip screw hole.



Cut handles for the floorboards, centered them so the floorboard would be balanced when we have to carry them.

Marked a hole big enough for 4 fingers wearing a glove. Drilled pilot hole for the jigsaw blade.


Cut the hole with a jigsaw.



Made a pattern to send to a friend.
