The front section is built in two parts bottom built and the next level built on top then glued into position on the structure. Three pieces glued to the upper opening and the window section glued onto them.
Getting this far with the build I have found areas of the kit that in my mind need help I'm glad this not my first build.

First time building an interior for a boat I'm working on. Used all reclaimed wood from the build and modified the dimensions a bit to fit. The plan does not go into detail on how to go about putting the interior in place . It seems to work where it sits in the boat.
