Coamings

I got the coamings done yesterday.

After breaking several pieces of 6mm ply in an attempt to bend the sharp curve at the front, I finally decided to follow Johns directions and make the piece from 2 layers of 3mm ply. I was hoping to make this piece from the same 6mm ply I used throughout the boat so I could varnish the coamings, but no luck so I will paint them instead.

I trimmed the forward coaming a bit to allow better access to the storage locker.

And trimmed the aft coaming a bit to clear the tiller.

I also got the rubrails finished.

Next up: Deck paint
