Port beams trial fit

Thanks to Griffin for lifting the port beams up in to position (I can see why other builders hoist completed floats up out of the way!). Good news is these beams lined up just fine. Labor Day weekend is slated for installing the diagonal bracing tangs in to the beams. These two beams’ internals should go much faster than the starboards because all the parts were fabricated at once, so this time it’s just an install job.

Access to one of the forward port beam bolts is inside the shower stall wall, so that led to deciding/cutting in a cabinet door – that’s going to be a great storage space for bulky bathroom things. The shower stall is generous – might use up some space with a vertical water tank? Time to calculate the volume of 6″ deep, two feet wide and five or so feet tall. Hmmmm
