Thanks Chris, we got the bottom plank in place using that technique of cutting into the plank along the centre of each station. This method also gave us an accurate point to redraw the profile on with a batten.

Now we have glued on the transom, midship frames, and stem to the bottom plank. We will finish planing the bottom plank today and start working on the next sheet to scarph.

What makes a good team

A good boat building team must communicate well to ensure each person is aware of what stage in developement the boat is in. This also ensures that each member of the team is educated in the construction of the craft and participating. I think my team the "hory dory" is accomplishing this.
