Great day for grinding.....

Temps were dropping all day today. Ended at the high 30's tonight. So I was quite comfortable with a lot of clothing covered by a sealed paper suit. Spent 4 hours or so cutting out the limber holes that got covered with the latest glass work. them I had to clean up the openings in the gussets and fair in the edges of all the recent glass work.


Here is the finished platform for the main engine muffler. The bit of white you see in the stringer side is the limber hole though the outer stringer. I made the platform out of PVC board, so I can screw the muffler down to it, and I do not have to worry about rot. I made it a platform instead of  a shelf so no dirt can collect under it. It is now sealed off space in the boat.









Here is a close-up of the limber hole and drain area to direct any water that does come through the limber hole around the muffler.
