Strip: New Project Picture *Pic*

I've been working on the small fore and aft decks. Trying to get the deck ready for glass as soon as possible. R2K2 is in 60 days and it would be a nice event to launch her at. It will have been almost two years exactly since I started. I guess this picture is mostly just another shot of her lines. I've never paddled a Steve Killing design (or even heard rave reviews) but I do like the way they look.

In this picture, I'm adding strips to the extreme fore and aft decks. The blue lump is a set of ankle weights (I knew they could be used for something :)) to help keep that miter clamped together. The open center section will be a single large cockpit.
