The plans are what they are, the build logs here are helping more! I enter this part of the build kind of gun shy. Nice pink Corned beef, carrots, potatoes and pearl onions.has to be pearl onions per the Admiral! Its a beautiful fall weekend here in New England, crisp and cool. As per protocol, I'll get everything done in the last few hours before she gets home!Ī good Sunday dinner should resolve any left over issues.

Admiral is spending the weekend with her son, and I've been in the Shipyard most of the weekend. Quiet Sunday morning, hot cup of coffee, and its just me and the cat. I've already deepened it since the picture was taken. Port aft rabbet still a work in progress. To try and sand these stackables almost paper thin to attain the shape, per the instructions, is perplexing. I'm thinking sand smooth and just plank em! I think I'll go slowly with these and see what I can think up. This is one of the side projects while letting the main boat dry.

I took heed of others advice and left the bottom layer off to have better access to the insides. These 'stackables' are interesting to say the least. Don't get me wrong, big fan of wood fillers and the like! love em! I feel its easier to take wood away then put it back. When the bulwarks finally get lined up I may need to deepen it, just don't know yet. I tend to cut and sand short then adjust going forward. In the end, it was the X-acto knife and small chisel and a fair amount of sanding.
