As you can see for the pictures, we needed to take a break for cookies!  Christmas cookies decorating is an annual event with our neighbors so we are a bit behind on the postings.
     The hard chines are in place and we put walnut plugs in the screw holes for a color contrast. 
     There is now 10 oz fiberglass cloth on one side of the bottom and one side of the hull.  Fiberglassing is a huge job because of the size of the area being worked, so we were thankful that our friend and expert in fiberglass, Campbell Massey, could come help us with the job.  He gave us some very good pointers, plus it was very helpful just to watch him work.  He uses techniques which are very valuable.
     The next part of the project is rather boring.  It involves a lot of sanding and fairing, to get the hull ready for painting.  So pictures won't show much until we get to the painting.
     Happy Holidays to all of you blog lookers, and stay happy and healthy in the New Year.
