Cheers [emoji106], I am. I'm really enjoying the build and cant wait to get it in the water, but I'm taking my time and doing some slight alterations to the design. One of them is the seating. In the original design it has fixed seating, but I'm making mine so the seat base lifts off to give me some covered storage.

Hi mark, I've used 6mm marine ply. West system resin is what I'm using. I've just started on the resin stage, I did the inside of it yesterday. I still need to ring you about this table I'm making, so I will call you this week if that's ok. I've got projects on the go, left right and centre at the moment [emoji23][emoji23]. Cheers.
