Planksheer

Sand down the bulkhead post to fit the deck rail, cut to fit against the transom

Bulkheads in place

Bulkheads inserted into the hull board, center keel and rudder connected. The hull is shaved with a knife where it joins the keel. This allows the first hull plank to sit flush against the center keel. This is done from the stern up to the top of the bow. Without having doweled the keel before hand, it would not have been possible to glue the keel to the hull since the angle on each side of the hull is only 1/16 thick in some spots as you can see the dowel is showing through the hull.

Mast fitting

Bevel the mast post to fit into the hull form. Alignment of the rake will be controlled by the outer stantions along with the main stay and back stay.

Mast placement

Work the mast posts, supporting the hull with wooden blocks securing the mast

Transom

Transom is a bit difficult because the position it sits is not yet clear. I discovered that the planksheer butts up against it so it should start to take form.

The hull is in two pieces doubled up glued together.

Transom needs to be angled so I sat it in a glass of water over night then clamped it to a board with a pencil under it, I
glued the hull together sand down edges.

Bevel Bulkheads mark WL-6 center line

Bevel the bulkheads, mark the WL-6 line and hull center line on each bulkhead, sand according to each drawing on chart.
