Plugging the centerboard hole. I begin with the Divinycell. I thank everyone for giving keel advice

I have started to plug the hole I made for the centerboard. I started to fill the hole with Divinycell. Next I grind it smoth and even then I laminate on top.
That done, next step is to turn the boat upside down. To smoth the outside and laminate it.
There is one more reason to have the boat upside down that is to get the dimensions and shape of pattern for the bronze keel. I may have to make two, one left and one right.
I thank every one for giving advice in the comments about the centerboard and bilge keels

Sven Yrvind

Hi My name is Sven Yrvind. I design, build and cruise small boats. 1962 I left Sweden in 15 feet converted Blekingseka. I soon found out that there was room for improvement. To understand the basic I began to study mathematics and engenering. 1968 I sailed to England via many contries in a converted 13 feet rowing boat. People told me I be more happy on a bigger boat. November that year I found a wreck an old steam launch build 1885 I converted her to a staysail schooner and sailed her to Rio de Janeiro. That voyage advised me that a bigger boat do not bring happiness, happiness is an inside thing. I designed a 6 meter doubble ender built her in my mother basement. Tried to sail around Cape Horn with her but was capsized and pitchpoled. Later I built an 5.9 meter boat in her I rounded Cape Horn in the southern winter June 1980. I have continued to design, build, and cruise small boats often in high latitudes. Please support me on my donation button on my site yrvind.com
