CATAMARAN BUILD - Routing Perfectly Matching Bulkhead Doors (MJ Sailing - Ep 184)

With our MDF board properly measured and cut, we can now transfer that to our bulkheads to cut out three perfectly matching doors.

The two of us take the measurements on the bulkheads themselves to find the centerline – and from there, where the doors will sit at each end. Screwing the template into place, Matt uses his router to make a few passes, and presto, we have doors!

The plan had been to do some glassing on Bulkhead 5 as soon as we’d cut out the doors, but an unexpected storm and high humidity stopped us from getting that far. Luckily, Bulkhead 4, sitting up on the bridge deck, still had plenty of work to offer us for the afternoon.

We hope you enjoy!

Much love from Annapolis!
Jessica, Matt & Georgie
