"Choozys" is born and named!

The mould is done and we are actually starting to build "Choozys" herself. We screwed the first pieces of foam to the mould (from the inside) today and she's looking like a boat already. It only took about three hours to get these pieces in place on the mould. There are a few lumps and divots to sort later but nothing worth getting excited over at this stage and pretty easy to fix later.

The hull is very flat on the bottom as expected, but the corners are going to be nice and round as we hoped so all is good.
 
 
The foam for the bottom should all be in place very soon
 then we start fairing
(smoothing out the lumps and divots which is about as much fun as lifting heavy things all day)
