Pendant cet hiver 2008, j'ai également confectionné la console de la barre a roue, en fibre de verre, avec des renforts en chene blanc. Une fois cette console en place, le cockpit a véritablement pris une apparence de cockpit de voilier.

In the winter 2008, I made the composite panels that will allow the furnishing of the cockpit. These panels will be the inner walls and the storage compartments on wich we will also be able to sit. Early spring 2008, I was then already at work installing these elements. Behind my boat, there is a swamp and it sometimes overflows in springs. That did not prevent me from doing my work. I wanted to do as much as I could because, in july, a girlfriend from France came to visit me for 3 weeks.
In that same winter 2008, I also made the helm, with fiberglass reinforced with some white oak pieces. Once the helm fixed in place, the cockpit really started to look like a sailboat cockpit at last.
