Just some playing around, trimming the side edges, fairing transom, cutting screws that went through, cleaning up a bit the internals of the hull from the glue drops.

Floor board for the stern part.

Green-blue bottom

Polyurethane colour bottom. One more layer to go than 2 coats of varnish before the boat is turned.
