 the small things take big time


the last few days have been taken up with prepping the hull for glassing, rounding the edges so the glass lays down well, filling things that needed filling, removing screws and filling, filling in the relief cuts in the bow with a strong epoxy mix, fitting the stem, shaping the stem and rounding it, and cutting the stem shape
