This photos shows the 2nd lamination (2nd of 2) of the chine just being affixed, as well as the first lamination (1st of 3) of the sheer. The first are definately the hardest-- the 2nd and 3rd can be clamped directly to the 1st.
Have to resist using more fasteners than needed until after the fairing-- as I learned from the first boat-- probably 30% of the chine and 40-45% of the sheer will end up being "planed" away in what is called in the instructions "fairing". |

A transom shot-- lots of pieces coming together here-- this will be the part of the "fairing" that I know will be difficult-- lots of angles coming together at the same place.
Whole thing seems rather insubstantial (the transom)-- oh it feels sturdy enough-- but there are a lot of stresses at this point in the boat. |

Here is the other side-- same thing except only 1st lamination of each. |

Laminations of sheers drying-- each sheer is 27' (as was the chines) Using 16' and 12' pieces kept the number of scarfs down. |
