Meander Building 2

Hull decking

Deck and cabin layout is the same whatever hull shape is used. The wing and cabin extension can be clearly seen

Finished hull from aft

First hull moved outside. Aft beam will be bonded in place later. (hence no paint on aft face of wing).
Or you can make beam boxes and use metal straps over the beams. This means the boat can be built away from the water and transported in sections. However the boxes are heavy and take up space. They also take time to build (6 are needed). So, as it is unlikely that you will ever take the boat apart again once launched, consider leaving gaps for the beams and fit them in a waterside boatyard during final assembly.

Hull ready to move to water

(The car was not the vehicle used to tow the Meander to the water!!)

Finished hull with builder

This shows the size of a Meander and shows that its quite a daunting project, not one to be taken lightly.
