1) Possibly a similar question on the combing placement. Does this look right? I have Jeff's plywood prefab combing. The combing strap holds it in place like in the video Part #2 , but unsure if it is to be lashed. If so, should only the bottom of the 3 plywood layers be lashed under the skin? 2) Your "Skinning Polyester Part #2" video shows how to install the laminated comb- How to sew the skin on to the plywood combing? As attachment points for sewing, what replaces the holes drilled through the laminated combing? Thanks

I notice you have added a metal keel. Any challenges to doing the same? I have some brass for this purpose.

I tried moving them down to the chine, but because if my toes are on the foot rest instead of the arch of my foot I will have better control. I moved them back up onto the gunwale. They almost touch the lashing which comes down off the deck hatch ring support around the deck stringer.

I installed the foot rest on the Gunwale stringer but it looks like the foot rests will touch the skin. Is the standard fix to them mount them lower on the chine stringer? Thanks
