Carefully bend the companionway at the mark
and adjust it to the cockpit wall. Slide the hole
over the deck passage of the main sheet.
Paint the companionway and stick it on after
painting the cockpit.
Drill a 5 mm hole in the transom for the foot of
the flagpole. Glue the brass tube 11.1 at one
end with 5 min. epoxy so that no water can
enter the hull later. Then glue the tube into the
hull.
Afterwards slide the flange 11.2 over the tube
and glue it in place.
Insert the flag stick 11.4 into the foot. Attach
the flag 11.3 to the flagpole.
Grind the life jackets round, paint them, apply
stickers, hang them into the holders 9.17 and
secure them with superglue.

For the two winches from parts 11.12 glue 4
pieces each together for the pedestals. Then
adjust to the cockpit slope. Varnish the bases
several times with pore filler and then paint.
Attach the pedestals to the hull. Drill two 1.6
mm holes and screw on the winches.
