The Gauntlet is "hatched" - the two halves of the mold are removed with mallets and wedges.

 

The boat is supported by cables while the jacks are placed - very tense moments while the boat is swinging from the rafters!

 

The main forward engine room bulkhead goes in - note the engine stringers running the length of the boat.

 

Getting ready to put the aft most bulkhead in - this bulkhead helps support the back deck.

 

The roof is popped from its mold too.

 

   

The Gauntlet arrives in Marblehead to be finished...

 

Stay tuned for more pics!
