No hotel door keys - if they take a swipe of your credit card - have been told it can stay on the card. So have decided to use them for another purpose - hohoho - also being a good Yorkshire man it saves money on plastic  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Top & bottom decks.ribs, and bow & stern posts fastened together. When dry and solid will start to cut the ribs to shape ad then skin with thin plastic for the outer hull.

Ribs trimmed to size and the side sections made in 0.38mm plastic and port side fastened at the center - when dry and solid will gradually fasten it down along the full length of the hull.
NOT doing my usual job of trying to do it all in one go, but doing it bit by bit  ::) ::) ::) ::) :P
