| Stand-up paddle board, almost ready for deck |
Work is progessing nicely. Only a few more ribs to steam, and we will have all the boats off the forms inside of a week. While we finish at up, we will also mill and soak the ash inwales, before we trim them to fit inside the boats. Soon we'll turn to shaping the thwarts.

Stringers are on the Forms
All of the stringers have been laid on the forms and tied on with twine. Today I demonstrated for the students how to steam and bend the ribs and then lash them in place.

Meanwhile, Rob Feeney's stand-up paddleboard is coming along well. The entire hull and bulkheads are together, and we are almost ready to weld all the seams.
