Thanks all
Just back from vacation. No sailing just surfing and fishing at Hatteras N.C. USA.
Now back to work and boat work

You are right. I lack certainity on it.
The Romany is what I must be confused with. (see later post)

: : I dont think that answers it.
: : The deck is at the gunnel. So the deck is about 1 foot above the bottom of the cabin. I am trying to figure out if I should bond the bottom of the cabin
: : to the hull as well ?

: : So If I am under the boat looking up. I see the cabin bottom and hull seperated by say 1 foot. If you look up in that divide you see the deck (what is shown in the picture you posted). So another way of stateing the questions is. If I am looking at the bottom of the cabin should I see a continuous run of wood to the hulls ?

: : Thanks
: : Charlie
: I think you have it right, but lack certainty. There is no clear run between hull and cabin at cabin bottom level. As you look up you can see an inverted trench which is closed at each end by the fore and aft beam respectively. At the aft end of this trench you will see, on the final assembly sheet, a fairing piece, which runs between the underside of the deck, and the lower forward edge of the cee oh cee kay-pit. This naturally extends under the cbin, but is rather shorter here. This piece runs from the underside of the cabin to the $%£pit lower edge.

: : : It looks to me as if the area below the beam is solid and above the beam is open. You climb over the beams to go forward. I think the answer is to leave it open. Perhaps I misunderstood your question in the first place.

: : : I have tried to include an image off Richard's website.
