Cutting a hole with a 10.75" hole saw using a cordless drill was "exciting"

I went from something that could theoretically be called a boat, to a Chinese submarine! 

I don't know how I convinced myself that this part would be exciting. It wasn't, it was awful lol!

@Kellan Hatch it was my plan to do the standard sliding hatch with turtle as well, until reading Colin saying it wouldn't work. Still not sure WHY though. I really like what you did with yours. Whe...

I'm glad to see you're back at work, Thomas. There were many days I cursed myself for being too impatient to wait for things to warm up. I hear you about how unpleasant bending over to work on the ...

I used eyebolts to secure the ourtrigger. These are just general connect points. For instance, if I want to plop a galley box down on the outrigger while I'm at anchor I can secure it to these with...

I took a clue from Marty Loken and added oarlocks to the forward cockpit bulkhead for stowing the oars while at anchor.
