I finished the stem this morning, as I had it cut out in the woodshop at my High School.  The commercial grade 10" table saw made very quick work of this. 

?
stem from chunk of 2X4 mahogany.
? Then on to the forms and transom.  Had enough leftover mahogany in the garage for these parts. 

forms 2, 4, 9 (6 is under the bench)
This boat is pretty straightforward to build, and the shape is easy on the eyes.


transom, with mahogany frame and coated with epoxy (leftover from the batch, not wanting to waste it).
now taking a break as the bottom is getting the second side of the fiberglass butt joint.

?
4 gallons of water, a smooth board, plastic, and a heat lamp. works pretty good.
?These are the 6 6" oars.  The plans call for 7 footers, but this is what I happen to own.  Will sand these and apply new epoxy, varnish, leathers, etc.  The empty wine rack is a sad site.  No time to fill it with the boat being built.
