Calling Dr. Frankinstein

Me and this bulb plug are having a bit of an issue with each other.  I am two for two in destroying it while making a mold of the thing.  This time it came out of the concrete mold in four pieces!  Good thing that like Dr. Frankinstein, I can but the thing back together again .

I also did a quick weigh in.  The hull as is faired but not glassed externally came in at 455 pounds.  I am projecting a final; class weight of 790 to 820.

More work has been done to the rudder casettes withe all the parts for the second rudder having been made.  Here's a shpt of how the cassette internals fit together.

 Next, I'll epoxy everything in place and then skin the cassette with ply and glass.  When faired, it will make the mold for the cassette trunk in the hull itself.
