In the course of unfolding the stitched halves. the starboard bottom panel did a reverse flex and cracked just before the bow. will patch with glass on the inside and sand smooth. nothing terminal yet. I did need to add a little reinforcement at the bow to get things lined up better. It is pretty spectacular when this thing unfolds. I recommend an extra pair of hands here.

This crack was not as bad as it looked. a couple of layers of glass set in epoxy on this side, backed up by a scrap piece of 1/4" ply set over release film and screwed in place created an almost invisible yet strong joint. Sad to say, I have had to do this process many times while building boats.
