Infrastructure

It goes by many terms, some call it the Coach-house others the Cuddy whilst I've always called it the infrastructure. As my wife thinks 'cuddy' sounds cosy (sigh) ..... cuddy it is.


As you can see I have made and fitted the two side bulkheads; looking massive from this camera angle.

In order that the bulkheads slope gently inboards towards the centre-line, I have made tapered carlins'.

The starboard bulkhead, below, is screwed to the carlin and is forced to follow the taper of the carlin, causing it to slope inboard.




This is quite a high cuddy, but my wife is disabled, and so the structure is designed to suit her rather than style.
