Thank you Frank for your tireless work on the forum, it is greatly appreciated! Bit of an update. The way I had things set on the strongback set things a touch too high for me (I'm short) so I lowered everything a bit so I could reach better. I got everything squared up and leveled and added some more support to the frames. I had some difficulties hanging the transom until I asked for tips and used some temporary screws. I got that fitted and glued, did some fillets on the fames and stringers, and fitted the chine battens. I will glue those on Thursday and start shaving down the keel. I didn't have any problems with those battens, even with using douglas fir. Maybe it was because I used 2x stock and the way I ripped them made them pretty much quartersawn. Or I just got lucky. Either way, I'll take it!
