Started the fitting out. I started by mitrering both inwales to get a good fit then clamped down half of one side and drilled and countersunk through the hull. I used a useful little tool that I'd seen on SoTP which rests on the inwale and straddles the hull and hangs down the right distance on the outer to mark the centre of the inwale to ensure the screw is in the right place.
I left 125mm (5" in old money) distance between screws and got about 3/4 of one inwale fitted before it was time to go in.
My order from Ed'sCanoe turned up (minus x2 grab handles), quick delivery and didn't have to pay any duty either. Laid the seats etc out just for size.
