What do you do with a very large skiff?

Here are some photos taken just after the jig was removed.






I fitted some temporary thwarts to hold things together until some of the internal structure is installed












That is the stem sitting up there in the bow. I had some concern that something would spring loose when the jig was removed, but all the plywood acted like it had no intention of going anywhere.

Why you fillet.

Pronounced fill it.





Thickened epoxy is placed in the chine and then shaped to a concave surface.














After the fillet sets up just a little, a layer of fiberglass tape is laid down. Then the glass cloth is saturated with unthickened epoxy.
