Sheer Strakes Installed
Since I want to keep my options open to varnish the sheer strake, I used multiple clamps to hold the sheer strake on rather than the screw and batton clamp method used to date. This was made more manageable because the sheer strake is relatively narrow and so the clamps can reach around the full width of the plank.

We also glued the centre board trunk together and began planing the garboards to accept the outer keel layer and outer stem.
