Ohh and I also started tracing out the mirage drive parts too but I'm not sure how far I'll push that part of the project yet. It might be a while before I get my hands on a drive and it would be good to have one to reassure myself on measurements.

Sudz,
Progress looks good. If you need any mirage drive measurements let me know. I have mine handy.

Lent my trailer to a mate which ment a three day window of space in the garage. I took the opportunity to bond and fiberglass together the "D" panels for the hull. Looking forward to getting into some stitching!

Update time.

I started doing a little stitching yesterday then realised I hadn't marked on the frame reference lines, which wont be too hard to fix. The two hull pieces seemed to come together quite well however one lesson learned was to keep the zip ties a little loose.

I will put the finishing touches on the cockpit and tank well frames now and then do more of the hull sections.

Really awesome to start seeing the project take shape.
