Progress on the boat 3/28/11 through 4/10/11
Fourteen 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...
