I've flipped the boat and am now working on the interior framing, blocking, etc. before interior painting and decking. I now would like some comments on blocking, please. I see where blocking is needed - chainplates, intermediate beam, decking joints, and carling - but I find no wood specification, size, specific location, how to secure the blocking [epoxy glued for example], or screws needed.
I am assuming: 1) epoxy gluing to the hull & sheer [for the chainplates & intermediate beam] with no screws or bolts is sufficient. Agree or have any suggestions? 2) epoxy gluing & screws to the #5 frame/cross member [for the carling] is sufficient. Agree or have any suggestions? 3) epoxy gluing & screws to the sheer & carling [for the decking joints] is sufficient. I think a bit of blocking beneath the but block might be helpful epoxy glued to the hull. Agree or have any suggestions?
Thanks.
Terry
