Last Winter I finally got time to layup and fabricate the Mizzen Mast and remake a better sliding cap for the cabin.
The mast was made from Home Depote bought 2X3 by 8 wood that was scarfed on a 10 to 1 ratio and laided up into four 28 ft lengths using West Marine adhesive. The they were Glued together using PL premium The mast was then tapered and then cut in to 8s then 16s . The would had Grain denisty of 12 rings or more per inch. The layup had to be done out side because of the shear size but the scarfs were cut and glued at Make Haven
. The cabin hatch was made from ply wood frame with white oaks slatts. I will be bring that in for a tune up lol
