100th Episode -Boat Water Tanks Complete!! - Life On The Hulls - Catamaran Build Ep100
Determined to finish my water storage solution I set about finishing the 2 integrated water tanks in my Catamaran Hull. The summer heat is really taxing in the hull this year but a few changes to working hours and a knowledge on how to play around with the catalyst allows for some variances in technique. Huge week and lots of boat building in this one.
