Hi,
In my reply yesterday from my phone it wouldn't let me send any photos (said insufficient memory). So here are the photos I intended to send of my refurbished 50 year old 34" Crash Tender. As you can see it is creating a lot of spray. I therefore fitted a spray guard and the performance was much improved. In order to get the bend on the stringer I used a wallpaper steamer and a piece of plastic waste tube to steam it for about 45 minutes. I restricted the steam from escaping from the end of tube with an old towel. Hope this helps.

Cheers
Duncan

Sealing and glassing

Bow is all shaped with filler, all the wood structure and hull have been sealed with eze kote.
Fibre glass applied to the hull,had a slight problem with glass sheet stretching when removing excess resin.
