  4. first day of retirement, and i have brought the hull back into the mancave although not the way the instructions show, i have devised a system which allows the superstructure to be removed, using screws that are pretty well hidden. then is for any reason, the hull goes to someone else they can sort it out, my reasoning for it is that i wanted a tight seal not just a unit that lifted off, leaving gaps in places i can now start work on the foredeck thinking ahead i want rusty looking hull, im not quite sure how i am going to go about it, its not exactly a small unit
