I recently bought a tugboat hull off of Mark and it was a great hull well done and also thank you for the spare one. I will be posting my progress as i go on but will probably run into a few problems. like the one i am about to post now. As for you Mr. Tugboat you can almost say that this build goes dedicated to you =P so keep posted. now the pictures about i am making the deck but i am contimplating on what i should do. i soaked the 1/8 bass wood down and placed 2 batteries on it to give it a upward warm to the bow of the ship. but as you can see my lines i want to cut out there so i can access the motor and all the guts of the ship. but after i cut it out i will have 1mm of play and im also aftraid after i glue the outer deck to the hull that it might warp out of place. i need some input on what to do about this. thank you very much.
You can glue a stringer or two under the deck before you cut out the hatch. That should be enough to keep the curve in the hatch.
