Fast finish for final float fabrication

I made quick work of the last float half.  Working alone, I found I could comfortably complete the foam on a float half in two days.  I had hoped to do it in one, but two days isn't bad.  Here you can see the final product all cleaned up and trimmed to size.


Here's a shot of the soon to be merged pair of halves.  We are looking forward to being done with the inside taping work.  Then we can get on to the exterior fairing and glass work.

And on the other side of the shop is the port float awaiting detail work.  On the work bench, the foam for the stiffener is being glued together and clamped.  You can never have enough clamps.

Next week we will glass the interior of the last half, then we will finally join the first half to it to complete the structure of the starboard float.
