This photo show the final result of tabbing the two parts of this bulkhead together. The seam goes through the middle of the large hole, and the tabbing of the edge of bulkhead to the hull.
Here is the opposite side in the aft head. The seam got one layer of stitched mat tape. The hull joint got a foundation layer of mat, followed by a layer of roving, topped with a layer of stitched mat. The opposite bulkhead is blocked by the galley furniture, which will be ripped out later. The aft side of the bulkhead got the same three layer treatment. I added a bit of extra mat and roving to use up my epoxy.
I had hoped to fillet and tab in the last of the settee tabbing. While it is all cut and ready to go, with the exception of a few pieces to bond to one ring frame--which will need some filler, it was too later to finish that off. I'll do that on Thursday afternoon.
There is a gap in the cabin sole in one settee locker that needs to be filled in also. It should have some tabbing to bond the two sides together also.
