Making and fitting the stabiliser bars took two days as we had to cut and shape the timber to form the correct profile. Once this was complete it was then a few hours work to steam and bend it to fit the hull’s profile.

We needed to fit it to the hull and this was done by using two part epoxy glue and small screws from inside the hull, as this allowed us to hold the part in the correct position while the glue set over night. The following day we started the filling and sanding process to ensure these parts looked as if they were part of the hulls mouldings.
