Got all the framing complete, except for scarphing on the end of the battens to lengthen them.

To complete the chine, I split it, worked it into place, and laminated 3/8" ply to the back of it once in place. I will laminate another piece of 3/8" ply after it is in it's final position. Everything it temporarily attached so I can finish all the fairing of the frame and bevelling of the keel, chine, and sheer.

Oh yeah. They are very helpful. They love to pick up all my little cut-offs and carry them out to the yard and chew on them. My yard looks like a boat exploded.
