    The people who complain irritate me. This is your life. How long things take you is up to you. I don't think you need to justify anything to me or anybody else. Actually I'm thankful that you provide entertainment to help me get through a week and you provide a way for me to live vicariously get since I can't do it myself. Personally I'm thankful that you actually put this out there on the internet so that people like me can watch. Please ignore the negative people. This is your life live it however you want.

    Seabird will be far superior than the way she came from the factory. I especially like the though you both put into the work your doing. You never compromise quality. I look forward to your launch day too. But like any masterpiece it will come in its due time. Blessings and Merry Christmas from the Captain and crew of the SV Moxie.

    It´s not wrong to have u-beam-shapes with the opening pointing down. No water can collect in that, no risk of frost damage, thus, or rotting and all.
    I guess the foam you picked is marine rated and water proof and will be even better than the wood at keeping up the shape of the fibreglass bits. Foam can have capillary effect and suck in water. Marine grade foam probably is safe against that. Mainly in the early days of composite plastics design, glider planes used to have balsa wood for cores of fibreglass parts. It worked!
    Teak, Balsa, oak,, whatever, it´s only to maintain the shape. Bob´s your auntie, it´s all good, I guess.
    She´l be right! 🤗
    Have a merry Christmas y´all! 🤗

    I don’t think anyone has ever come to grief as a result of an excess of caution but I think that you’re over engineering the bilge and engine bed. 😂. Better over than under engineering. Remember that it has survived decades in its current form and I suspect that the new engine is a much smoother beast than the previous unit. Go well and have a wonderful Christmas ❤

    Subscribed! Approving of your visualizations. I've discovered when I can "see" a job through, then I can make it happen that way, until then I can't. But, damn, Marina! Those are the subfloor boards? With some finish on them, they look really spiffy, good enough for the surface. You're getting criticisms? Ignore them! None of them are tackling a job this humongous as "newbies", wouldn't, couldn't, or perhaps aren't newbies and have done it a time or three and know all the tricks of the trade. What are you being expected to do? A quicky, slap-dash job on a boat you would sail out into the middle of the ocean and have the "OH, S**T" moment where you find out you screwed up, have her sink out from under you and you die at sea? Oh, yeah, sure gonna do that!
