The carrier hull is finally at the riveters, these are some guys that Ben found who build and repair narrow boats (hence the dry dock in front of the hull). well they certainly know there rivets. the guy was over the hull like a rash explaing about all the different types of rivet used. anyway 300 rivets to do and he thinks its a days work for 2 of them once he gets the rivets in.
