15. Hatch Sill and Rim

The hatch sill and hatch rim have been installed. The piece I cut out will be the hatch cover/lid. The sill was clamped and glued last week and the rim was installed just now. Lots of clamps required. You will see I made a small mess of epoxy here and there, this will all come right off during sanding and anything remaining will disappear when epoxy is applied to the whole surface. All together, the hatch cover, sill, and rim will create a water tight compartment to provide flotation and storage of gear.
