ROFL I'm single and living with mum and dad atm. Also don't have a car and my not have 1 for a long time if ever. Falling asleep at the wheel can be damaging to your health, I don't sleep that well, never have. Also have back and shoulders problems and nothing can be done about it. I have had a twitch all my life, even had an MRI to try and find the source, but no luck. Now I just live with it.

First 2 pictures of my superstructure. Might put the hull on hold until I get part 21 or maybe get the sanding done and maybe a bit of the planking. Will have to see. Superstructure 001 Superstructure 002

Part D is just sitting loose for now. I'm using it for extra support of the rear of the hull.

Sky, Dont forget to make life easy for yourself and get Markus to give you the measurment of the motor drive shaft off the flat keel where it is mounted, so that you can run a thin metal rod through the keel costom hole and check the down slope angle (slight) from motor shaft to prop. At the moment in your photo, its looks like you might need a slight downward taper to the stern. that resin peice needs to turn down at rear ...see the angle....to line up shaft. Just sitting there it shows you it tilting up to stern.............a bit of sanding to settle position. Just my 2 cents worth again.
Cheers ROB

Sent a msg to Markus, now awaiting a reply. doesn't look bad - if you remove 1-2mm in the red marked area everything will be fine... there has to be a slight angle so the propshafts fit onto the motor's shafts (14-15mm above keel plate)
