Coastworker 30 Mk 2  

This Coastworker 30 (semi displacement) is being built by Graham in Queensland, Australia. On page 1 you will note that the inside of the hull plating has already all blasted and primed which, when building upside down, is a good thing to have done before turning the hull the right way up. The deck can then be made from plates blasted and primed on one side and then the entire outside can be done as one lot after all the welding is finished

to incorporate at this stage.
