3rd April sees me preparing the underside for painting an Ivory colour and ready to veneer the side panels with Mahogany, prior to laying on Epiphanes varnish.
The gunnels are fitted ,but will require additional layers once the woodshop re-opens.
The gunnels are glued and pegged with bamboo pins, avoiding screws in all but high stress areas, such as the prow and transom. I shall use screws for fixing the thwarts and dashboard because these need to be removable.

Transom marked for the cutout in way of the outboard motor. |

| Bottom panels prepared with Pre-Coat white base |
