The lockers are framed out with support timbers and then the locker tops are cut to fit.
The locker tops are dry fitted so they can be removed to line the inside of the lockers with fibreglass and to complete the cutouts for the locker hatches.
The front deck on the second hull has been completed so now the deck lockers can be prepared.

Thanks Neil. It is taking shape but now have to make a ton of decisions about equipment.

Wow it's a hell of an under-taking, so congratulations so far.

Thanks Frank. The boat is powered by two 60HP outboards so I'll use hydraulic steering to a wheel at the helm. Steering comes from the engines so there is no need for for rudders.

Hi Martin, Just so I've got this bit right, having 2 engines means that if you want to turn you reduce the power to the appropriate engine?

Hi Frank, they are outboard engines so the steering turns them in the same way as a tiller turns the engine on a dinghy. You also have the option to put one engine in forward gear and the other in reverse which gives great low speed manoeuvering.
