The carrier hull is finally at the riveters, these are some guys that Ben found who build and repair narrow boats (hence the dry dock in front of the hull). well they certainly know there rivets. the guy was over the hull like a rash explaing about all the different types of rivet used. anyway 300 rivets to do and he thinks its a days work for 2 of them once he gets the rivets in.

In the end it was all a bit last minute on the back of another job, i had to do a drop off in leamington as well. i was not expecting to take it over until next week. Its not far from yours , i did say to the guys you may slip over in the next few weeks to look at it etc.
