Scarab 18 folding trimaran Part 11
Foam was attached temporarily to the cabin sides. The top was then glassed. The edges finished and taped. Undo the straps connecting the cabin top to the hull and remove the cabin top. It is much easier to add the reinforcing at this point rather than work overhead in a confined space. The main hatch was cut out and reinforced. The cabin top was finished ready to paint before it is attached to the hull. The cabin top was attached to the hull. All the plywood surroundsfor the lockers were glued in place.
