Construction Pictorial
Fig 9: A lot has happened since the last photo. The chines, keel, sheers and battens have been glued and fastened in place. These longitudinals have been "fair" so that the plywood would have a flat surface to glue and fasten to. And all planking has been installed, except the forward bottom. (For details about fitting longitudinals and fairing, see our Plywood Pictorial.
Fig 10: The planking is complete and the hull is being prepared for fiberglassing.
Fig 11: The hull has been fiberglassed. This is John Caras' boat; notice the motorwell and centerboard slot. (Caras)
Fig 12: Masking for bottom paint.
