I was sceptical about this bit. The deck didn't seemed very flexible yet was going to have to take quite a bend if it was to fit on the framework. I dry-ran this several times before being happy - the back end needs to hang over the rudder tube, then the bow is held against the keel. Finally the deck is pushes down in place and seems to fit.
Then the joints are glued and the process carried out all over again. This time with stickiness.
Eshewing superglue for PVA I needed to clamp the main parts together. The shape of the model at this stage makes this tricky but some trigger clamps achieved it eventually. I've no idea why I own so many - but this time I'm glad I do !
