Initial Hull glassing finally done

 Finally done with the inside hull fiberglassing.  As you can see, I'm following the steps suggested by Brent's blog and doing alot of work on the lower hull before installing the sides.   Getting these areas around the floor boards glassed was hard enough - not sure I could have gotten there if the sides were on. I also did a variation on the way I glassed between the floors. First I put glass in each corner.  I actually used a bigger piece that extended farther toward the center of the centerboard. Then I glassed the sides of each floor board with it extending out over the hull panel.  Finally I laid a wide strip down the center.   This took longer, but was much easier to lay down.  The first section I tried using a single sheet and total messed it up.  This worked well.
