Tolman Skiff - Dodson Jumbo: 2/27 - 3/2 build on the Crystal Dawn 24'Jumbo


By Kenneth Dodson - Posted on 03 March 2006

I haven't got a lot accomplished other than continuing to cut parts in preparation for some epoxying work this weekend. I have cut all the upper sides out as well as the solid wood 2" shelf pieces that will join the upper sides to the lower sides. I am using the process that Neal did on his jumbo. Neal was nice enough to provide me with a couple of pattern pieces that allowed my to quickly reproduce them on my table saw.

I have dry fit the aft bulkhead in place and dry fit the sides. Tonight I trim the front bulkhead slightly to match the cuddy sides, and start the glassing and epoxy work. I plan on installing the bulkheads and filler pieces including the filler necessary for the tank. I will add the nailers where needed on the sides and the 1 1/2" pieces on top of the stringers in the fish deck area. I also want to fit and temporarily install the decks in the fish area and the main cabin sides. I plan on installing the drop sole in the cuddy and main cabin between stringers. If I get that all done in the next 2 weekends I will be happy.
