Hope mine turns out as well !  Struggling with the treatment of the waterline across the stern and how to seal / secure the rear hatch. The aft end tends to raise slightly.
Do we just trust that the deck stays dry ?

@ mike
there are several way you could go about sealing the rear hatch, a simple one; would be magnets, and a little bit of Vaseline around the hatch edges.

@ Simon; you can be proud of your self on this one...  ^^^  next one... a big detailed boat... that takes you a couple of years to build..  ;D   ::DD

Thanks for this. When I read the instruction to " attach to roof platform 123 and trim the angle to ensure the box sits level" it led me to believe that I had to chamfer the roof platform edge and fix to the roof window panel. It struck me this would not be a very strong joint ! Tried to post a few pictures of the build but the files(taken on iPad) are too big. Not that well up in this technology to know how to reduce file size
