I used the power bisquiter (on loan), a number 10 biscut, some plummer's putty, and I forget what I used for glue, but I hope it will hold up.

Another shot of the repair, the jig saw in the foreground is ours and too wimpy (as I soon learned) to cut 3/4" pine, so to do cutting the table saw couldn't (turns, acute angles, ...) I used the Makita Reciprocating Saw, which really is the better tool for the job.

I finnished cutting the inner peices and dry assembled the keel, the plastic resin glue should be in the store around Friday

I held everything in place with duct tape, I need more clamps

The stern pieces should all be the same length, they are not, I will take care of this soon.

Two people came over today, and they did all the work I assigned them too, the jobs I had them do were measuring and lofting, and nailing for the batten, also holding the trouble light while I am cutting was a useful job the guy to the left did.

Steve here is marking something, but not semi-blindly as it might appear in this shot. He made all the measurements for the bottom of the boat.

The nice and subtle curve made
