Today I built the door to the pilot house. I'm still working on it. I used two door skins with framing on the edges and around the window with 1/2" blueboard inside as a core. I really didn't need to put the foam in there but it makes the door stiffer and who knows, some day I may end up ripping that door off as the boat sinks and using it as a paddle board to get me back to shore.

I'm putting tape on the sides and will have some UHMW on the top and bottom where it slides. When it closes the window in the door lines up with the window in the aft pilot house bulkhead. The next thing I have to do in the cockpit area of the boat is make some seats. I had to get the door installed first because it will slide behind the seat on the port side when open. I still have to figure out how all that's going to work. We probably only have a few weeks of warm weather left for working on the outside of the boat. If I get the door done then I can put a heater in the cabin and work comfortably during the winter months.
