Build Time: 3+ Months

August was a pretty uneventful month for boat building. With moving out of my old apartment and into my new one for school and studying for summer finals while working there was little time for anything else. The total amount of time I have invested so far is about 3 months of actual labor. As it sits now the framing is complete as well as the fairing, except for where the stem meets the breast hook, and some plywood panels are cut. Below is a picture of the new batten that I had cut when the other one broke. In the picture you can see the side that was cut, which is all black from a dull blade on my table saw; a reminder that good equipment does make things easier.
