Great Billed Awk hull almost stripped

Wow! This weekend turned out to be a major boon for my boat. She almost has a stripped hull. All I have to say is that this a sexy, fast looking hull. The building project too a break, but we seem to back on schedule again.

One note: I haven't been using the regular 3/4" cedar strips with cove and bead. I milled my own ~2" strips and have been hand beveling the strips as I lay them. I worked a little with C&B last fall at R2K. It was easy, but I've found the beveling to be just as easy with the added pleasure of each strip having me lay my hands on it at some point.

I'll be putting up pictures tonight :D
