More work on the Saint Lawrence River Skiff


More work on the Saint Lawrence River Skiff.  Little bit of a trick to keep the sheer line level and also flatten the bottom of the frame at the correct angle to intersect with the wide keel to keep everything plumb. I’m literally just posting this so I can remember how to do it next time!  Very happy with these laminations, mahogany on the edges and red cedar in the middle makes them extremely strong, but also very light.
