      Scarph cuts have been made


      Started putting sharp joints together clamping mirror images together with plastic wrap between.

          I messed up and left the epoxy in the shop overnight and had to bring it in the house to warm up. After that, I will get back after it. Just three pieces left to scarph together then I can start assembly!!!

                  Awesome Job Sir.

                  Glad you finally got this project going.

                  Maybe we can put some fish in it when you finish.

                    Sounds like a plan to me.

                      Made a good deal of progress today on “Skipjack”. I originally planned to just get the shop ready for assembly but when that was done by lunch, well I just could not wait.

                          If all goes as planned I will have a brother over Monday evening and we will put the transom in and the inner skeleton to really give it shape and support. Temperature wise, this weekend would have been the perfect time to get all that knocked out but we already had other plans.

                            I didn’t work on the boat but 15 minutes this evening. When I got in from work I found the pup had a field day with our kitchen rug so I just popped out for a few to blow off some steam. I quickly decided it wasn’t a good idea to work on it upset so I stopped.
