The next step is to install the bearers for the deck-
fittings for the stays and shrouds; these parts are cut
from 8 x 8 mm spruce strip.
The bearer (46) at the bow is 40 mm long, and should
be glued in place in the position shown in the drawing.
At a later stage the hole for the fitting itself is drilled
from above through the marked point on the deck.

The lateral bearers (47) for the shroud fittings are 95
mm long, and must be glued in place as shown in the
drawing alongside. They should project beyond the
frames by the same amount front and rear.
Once again, the mounting points for the fittings are
determined by the markings on the deck.

The two bearers (48) for the centreboard are located
in the bottom of the hull between the two centre
section keels (11). Cut a 3 x 3 mm slot in the front
bearer for the centreboard, then glue it to frame 7,
part (12), under the lower reinforcing rail; the slot is
indicated in this drawing.
Cut a 3 x 3 mm slot in the rear bearer, then fit it
centrally between frame 5, part (18), and frame 6, part
(15), at a point 4 mm below the top edge of parts (11).

The final bearer (49) is intended to support a ring-
screw which redirects a boom control cord; it is located
just forward of frame 4, part (21), facing the bow. Its
exact position is determined by the machined notches
in the two keels (11). The hole in this bearer is drilled
later; its position is determined by a hole in the cockpit
floor.
This drawing also shows the rear centreboard bearer
(48) from above.
