Its looking like a boat.....

Well its nine days since the last post and we now have the stem and transom in place and the keelson being fitted. The next job is bevelling all the points where the cedar strip will meet the structure, quite complex around the stem but D is up for the 3D mental gymnastics that this will require. I am new to blogging but have now opened up the blog to comments but please keep it friendly! - thankyou.

 

Its been a busy month....

Where have we been for the last month ?..... well busy..but the boat is coming along well. Remember that pile of bulkheads ? well they're now looking a bit more seriously boat shaped...D has had fun with his laser level which was fantastic for lining up all the bits. The longitudinal bulkheads stiffen the structure up and then there's some fairing to do before we get to the cedar strip.

 

 

 

and there's a lovely laminated iroko stem.
