Adding the outwales

Adding the outwales is the part that for some reason took me six months to complete. Oh yeah, summer happened. I emailed John, asking him whether I should try to laminate both of the outwales pieces on each side simultaneously, or do them one at a time. He said that if I had time, I should do them one at a time. Well, I'm not exactly a speed demon about building this boat, am I? One at a time it is.


First port (April 2007).



Then starboard (May 2007).


Then the second piece to the port (May 2007).

And the final piece to the starboard (December 2007!).
