Now we are back to the bare hull and all the paint removed from the hull , we can start the rebuilding of Mai Star II.
Now the hull is bare and there is nothing in the way of working on the hull it is time to make plans to start the rebuild of the frames and ribs of the hull.
One of the first jobs is to replace the missing frame and the five ribs in the port side forward and get the strength back in the hull and stop it from dis-taunting the hull shape.
The other major job to do is replace the top sections of the frames which have got rotten and broken off over the years.
Another job is to repair the beam shelf and block the spaces between the beam shelf and strengthen it up and fix it back in position.
A major job I am not looking forward to, as it has been a number of years since I tackled this job.
This is the other job I am not looking forward either.
