Made another form, the laminate the side roof frames, produced a frame and compared it to the template. It lines up well!

Caulking the cabin sole!
Finally got a break from the monsoons and wet weather enough to dry out the boat enough to sand the cabin sole sikkaflex... Its looking about how I wanted .. not perfectly yachty.. but rustic.. but has that boaty nauticalness. I've got a little more to do. some filliing of lows in the caulking.. But so far I am happy enough with the results.
In the process took off a little of the top sealant ... but I expected as such. Hopefully can get a final sand and resealed before the rains come again and it gets a little damp. The water does seep in from the topsides since the cabin is not enclosed.
