The hull is formed, then the deck is welded to it with bulkheads in place and the transom is added. You will then end up with, wait for it, hull, deck and bulkheads!

 

Still want to argue?

I think there is some kind of misunderstanding here.Peace my brother.

aaahh...reminiscing on the days when ford sierra 3lt and opel kadett 2.0 tsi drivers were constantly bickering about who had the most muscle under the bonnet. The common denominator was the amount of brannas present when this discussion started and the equal lack of skill behind the wheel.

Today people measure dicks about who's car has the best infotainment system...boring.

The Opel had a unique safety feature. As soon as you stomped on the gas it would torque steer straight into the nearest hedge.

This reminds me of travelling from Joburg to Bulawayo in about 1970 to ride the Dunlop 3 day stage race in my Ford Escort 1300 GT (gold with a black stripe).

At about Pienaars River Alan van Heerden roared past in his Mazda rotary. ... and again at Nelstroom, ...and at Pietersburg and just past Messina.

The only thing that Mazda could not pass was a fuel station. We got to Bulawayo before Alan.

 Below is a photo of me and my teammates @ the Dunlop in Bulawayo. My Hub icon is a far better likeness than the Gollywog below.

Good old TS - one of the few cars where you changed lanes with the accelerator not the steering wheel!

Opel Kadet - when I was in the army I worked for a private military contractor. We were based in Silverton in PTA but had a test range some place outside PTA (name escapes me). I think it was about 60km out. We had Opel Kadet Cubs that we used for the commute to the test range. Being the bored troepe that we were, various challenges arose. Fastest time from PTA to test range in 1st gear only. Fastest time from PTA to test range without using the clutch while driving - yes this is possible. Jeez I have loads of respect for those little cars considering the abuse the endured. They just kept going - never an issue.
