We have successfully released the first hull half from the mold! Now to cut off the flange and hatches, and start on the second half.

The hull mold has been successfully released from the plug. The surface quality is outstanding, so we are ready to move on to making the actual hull!
The mold is complete and in the progress of being taken off. Here’s how it looked before being removed. There are two layers of 1/2 oz. chopped strand mat, two layers of glass cloth, and four layers of 1.5 oz. mat. The black colour comes from the tooling gelcoat which makes up the inside surface of the mold.
Well the plug for the new hull has arrived and final preparation in underway (See below).We are planning to start mold construction this weekend. Stay tuned for more updates!
