CLC17LT new build

After some questions about the build, I’m finally making some good progress. Currently working on block planning the shear clamps.

I’ve made a bit more progress. End pours are done, and the foot braces have been fitted. It was great to finally sit in the boat, if only on the ground. I chose to use bronze hardware instead of the stainless screws supplied in the kit. I tapped the foot braces for 1/4-20 and will have an acorn nut on the inside as well. Preparing to do the decks. I think I can do the aft deck alone, but will try and get some help with the fore deck.

Continuing to make progress. But had to stop after attaching the rear deck for an out of town trip. Did a dri fit of the forward deck



Okay, back on the project. Finished up the hatches, and getting ready to install the forward deck.




Got the forward deck installed and rough trimmed

Thanks Howard. We just finished glassing the top deck. I’m using the cockpit coaming from a Duck 12 to give me and my prosthetic joints more room to get in and out!
