Building Meerkat, a very small catboat, part 5

by John MacBeath Watkins

Here's the current state of the boat. I've sealed the inside of the boat with epoxy thinned with denatured alcohol, and the deck beams are ready for the aft deck. The access plate for the lazarette won't be permanently installed until the inside of the boat is painted.

By the way, there's a build thread here: http://forum.woodenboat.com/showthread.php?150763-Building-Meerkat-a-very-small-catboat
