Bulk head and fore deck

The last things we were able to get done was the bulkhead and the foredeck.  The Bulkhead is a piece of wood that goes plumb down at a certain part of the boat.  The bulkhead serves as a structural part of a boat, its also put in to hold up the foredeck.  It also has a hatch cut out of it to store things.  The foredeck is a piece of ply that goes over the top of the bulkhead and in conjunction with the bulkhead it creates a cockpit at the front of the boat, thats where you hold things like your anchor or bale or any other things you may like to cover.  Under the foredeck there is a fore and aft still plnk of wood so that if anyone needs to stand on top of the foredeck its isn't as easy to break.
