Snowy Kincora Jan Update from Rhode Island



Great progress, she now has the following new and updated structure:
1. Fwd crash bulkhead with anchor locker floor
2. New mast frame with a more pleasing shape and better structure.



3. New Ring frame at the companionway with knee supporting the cockpit floor

4. Nav station 90% completed where there was empty space




5. Olson 30 style seats Port and STB at companionway
6. New structure where the old ¼ berth was with an unsupported hull panel.
7. New battery platform that carries the CL Hat Frame to the ring frame where the motor was.
We have added more structure then the original boat, which was desperately needed. One owner told me on the last Bermuda 1-2 he felt the boat twisting around him while sitting in the settee. Then he could see the galley (which was not bonded together) moving. The additional weight is a small price to pay for a stiffer boat. So we are fixing this by tying it all together.


Next on the list is to finish off:
Mast frame details
Install the new companionway ladder with proper steps
Finish off the nav station
Remove the last rotten plywood bulkhead aft
Remove the rotten plywood under the mast step
Stiffen each stanchion base below with knees and proper back up plates
Finish work below
Refinish the deck
