Bore hole for the propeller well

Propeller well

Parallel to the work being carried out on the deck, in the rear part of the hull the shaft for the propeller well was drilled.

In this view of the port side from the stern of the Anitra you can see in the upper part of the stern post the bore hole for the well.

Lines drawing

To be able to drill the shaft for the well accurately, the measurements from the lines drawing were carefully transferred to the hull.

Tape strips for orientation

Everything was taped on the hull, so that all the boat builders involved know exactly where the shaft has to be drilled and where the supporting parts, such as the frames, are located.
