Stopped by tonight on the way home and mounted the rudder. Looking good!

I also started to attach the rear position/strobe light in the fibreglass bottom. I went and asked Mike about this, and he told me the secret. It’s great to have Mike around for this sort of stuff, since he’s done it before he knows all the tricks. I cut a hole the right size for the lamp, drilled the mounting holes, then mixed up some resin with flox and epoxied nuts in position. Tomorrow, it should all be nicely cured, and the nuts will be held nic and securely. Thanks for the tip Mike!

Here you can see the flox over the nuts….
