Keel, battens, chine, sheer lumber arrived.
Yesterday I glued the doubler to frame 5 1/2 and began to brace and align the other frames. Also nailed and screwed frame 5 1/2 and the transom frame.
Today I picked up my order of wood from Northwest Lumber. They dont carry 16ft mahogany so they recommended PurpleHeart which really is purple and comes from Mexico, they say its more dense and stronger than the mahogany. I dont like that its purple but you wont see much of it anyway once the interior is installed.
Thats all I did today, I spent the rest of the day sailing my Precision 13' on Eagle Creek Res.
