Here's the pics from last night. As you can see we added a few more pieces of ply to the top. So you can kind of get an idea of the top will look like minus the glass the the ports. I'm thinking about making the middle window just a cleaning port also. I don't really want to mess with that small of a window on top, and I think it will look fine that way also. Here's the pics and enjoy. Sorry I'm late posting. Wife's chores come first!

you can see in the pics a pic of where I had to cut the verticle studs even with the top of the rails. This is so that all the ply will lay even. As you can see from the pic of the level, this think is completely level. Bubble centered no matter where I lay it!

I wonder if there's such thing as an 18 foot level? Haha. I've been watching this for a couple weeks now. Simply amazing! Unfortunately something that will only be in my dreams for many years to come.......

Looking good as always

Gonna be a hella stinky job fiberglassing it. Wife might not come near you for a while when you come inside. (Mine won't after I spend an evening using polyester resin)

I found a gelcoat I'm debating on ordering. Not sure weather I should fiberglass the inside or use something else before the gelcoat. Definitely fiberglassing the corners. I'm headed out for five more days of fun!
