Boat Progress 11.30.08

Hello everyone - Hope you all had a nice holiday weekend.
I am happy to report I found some time in between family functions to get some work done on the boat.
Most of my work has been on the interior appointments thus far - as well as the frames.

Managed to get 7 of 9 frames rough sanded in the past week, basically getting them cleaned up after I glued them and sanding the excess glue out of the angles on the interior side of the frames... they look decent even though I have only got them down to 100 grit so far...

The rear passenger seat is assembled except for the rope keys... and will hopefully be rough sanding that piece out this week. I also assembled the transom this morning. It's rough looking now - but should sand out nicely.

Here are a few images I snapped while working away.








Let me know if anything looks horribly wrong! ha
Thanks for looking...
Jason

Thanks guys!
I will add another nail up the frame for sure... wasn't too sure on that when I first put it together, but like you said it won't hurt to do it after the epoxy has cured so no problem there.

And yes Greg - that is the smell of epoxy! haha

Thanks for the feedback.

Nice job Jason... I can almost "smell" the cedar as you sand - wait, maybe that's the epoxy...
Good progress -

Awesome job Jason. You should add one more nail going up the transom frames. It will be hard to do after a side panel is on. It doesn't matter if you add that last nail before or after the epoxy drys.
