First Plank

The second stringer is on.

Here's the Luke Foster 10:1 Stepped Scarf Pro Jig. Just add skillsaw.

And finally, the first plank.

Centre Case and 1st Stringer

I've been getting a hard time for not posting, but we're trying hard to be finished for summer and I do have to spend time studying and writing.

Here you can see the inside of the centre case sides.

The stem and bulkhead one went on.

Here's our centre case. We've made a lot of changes from the plans. Our centre board is a much higher aspect ratio. It comes in around 1m by 300mm and 30mm thick. The board's laminated from 20mm strips of cedar.

In these two you can see where the blocks for the uphaul and downhaul fit. And the notches for the thwart, which is only going to be 200mm wide and on the forward side of bulkhead five, instead of the aft side. We're changing the seat layout to give us more space in the cockpit.
And here's the first stringer. Boy it's fiddly, and it takes ages coving around every joint.
