HI! after reading these posts for a while, I am beginning to thing that ANYTHING is possible! probably why I didn't catch the joke. thanks for the info, I have Nick's book, maybe I missed something, but it doesn't appear real clear, will read it again and look for details, checked out your site, very helpful in getting started, laying out forms on plywood today! later, rmd
: Hi again RMD;

: Rehd was just joking when he asked if that was a fancy hatch - It's really
: part of the design I'm building on the deck. The hatch (probably rather
: conventional)at that end will be a bit further forward.

: The forms come out when you have glassed both the deck and the hull on the
: outside. You then separate the two, remove the forms, and clean out the
: insides to prepare them for glassing. If you order any of the books, such
: as Nick's, it will explain the sequence plenty thoroughly. You can check
: out my website link below, I take an awful lot of pictures when I'm
: building and you might find a few helpful - I'm a novice as well, so you
: can learn from my mistakes . . .

: Best Regards and "Get that double underway,"
