Strip: Brit boat project *PIC*
By:John Abercrombie

Just now managed to get a few quick snaps of my 'Brit boat' which I finished last month.
16' loa x 21.25" beam
Cedar strip with glass hatch recesses, recessed 'bar-type' line fittings.
Painted with Interlux 2-part LPU; epoxy was also coloured with System Three epoxy pigments.
I'm pretty happy with the result; it paddles just like it is supposed to do!

Imitating a glass boat in wood strip is pretty challenging; interesting project.
