Trimmed to fit, with the top flange, bottom flange, the wedge-sleeve, and the cap shroud lever all in place. I won't glue the bits together until after the cabin top is glued down. Then I need to figure out how to fasten the post to the boat- I don't want to glue it in. Bolts at the bottom is easy enough, but the top connection needs some thinking- something that ties into the mast step I suppose.

So after this fun project, I spent the rest of the morning sanding the under-deck taping, as well as everything from f18 to f124 to get ready for interior paint. I'll do the painting once the lid is glued on, so with the sanding done I'm finally ready to seal that big hole in the deck.
