Bulkheads Done!

And finally all the bulkheads are laminated! As seen in the last post, we had some problems with the infusion method, but the ones made with manual and vaccum bags were fine. Two pieces of hard wood were added to the stern bulkhead to reinforce the engine anchorage point. We also designed a very advanced post curing chamber :) with a black plastic bag
By the way, the bulkheads become harder each day. It's very impressive. The stern one, wich was made with more fiberglass, is very strong!
Now it's the turn off the bottom and side pannels. When they're done it will be time to build it up toghether!

Bulkheads prepared to go to the oven :) Note the hard wood reinforcements in the stern bulkhead
