The lighting is better in this scan, so this is a better representation of what the boat really looks like. The knob on the hatch isn't installed yet -- it's just posing. I cut the hatches right down the middle of the outer walnut half-strip to make the line less visible. You can also see those steenkin' dark cherry coaming riser blocks I mentioned a couple of pictures ago. I managed to select pretty consistent white cedar strips for the deck, which I'm pleased with. The hull has a more varied look.
