Doing the fine trim on the transom. https://m.facebook.com/clifford.cull?ref=bookmarks https://m.facebook.com/clifford.cull?ref=bookmarks https://m.facebook.com/clifford.cull?ref=bookmarks

Cutting the 5/8 by 1 1/8 piece for the second part of the fine trim on the transom. Used the planer to bring the 3/4 pine strip down to 5/8.

Starting at it again. It has been a long time. Going to pre drill the holes for the brass screws to hold the breasthook in place.

3 coats of unthickened epoxy on the undersides of the seat back tops. Now thickened epoxy to glue one side down. 13 drywall screws to hold it and about 12 2 lb lead ignots plus two bags of salt.

3 hours of sanding with 80 grit the bow deck and cabin wall. Not fun. The respirator is a must though. Was still getting in eyes. Need a good pair of safely goggles. I estimate 10 more hours of sanding the bow deck and inside Cabin walls.

Marked the underside of the Seatback tops and trimmed them with a jig saw. This will I hope make the routering easier after they are glued down. Also put 1st coat of unthickened epoxy on the underside of the tops.

Seatback full of floatation foam. Planed the tops. Ready for Tops to be glued down. Just wondering if I should trim them first. There is way too much width and the plans call for routering them to size after glueing.
