Progress on the boat 3/28/11 through 4/10/11Fourteen weeks in.
Patching and cleaning up sheer strake continues – we use it as a filler job – in between doing other things.

Luke shaping pins to fill old fastener holes in transom framing

Frames are pinned, ready for planking

New end of bottom transom plank finally glued up

Next plank up on transom gets new end glue up as well

This shows both planks with new ends installed

Chris and Luke cutting back plywood deck edge to install hardwood edge

Deck edge cut - detail

Luke shaping and fairing the repairs to side deck faces

Chris and his brother Jimmy glue first piece of hardwood edge on deck at transom
At this point anyone and everyone who knows Chris should be concerned about being forced to work on this job.
My advice - leave town before he calls. No one is safe or exempt.
Except Chris’s sidekick, Toby. He refuses to help in any way...
