I started the construction of the gunwale, starting from the bow where must engage in the oarlocks. Everything is only hinted at plenty fat: it will be finished later

After several attempts came bad, I managed to make a window more acceptable; I do not know if I can, but I want to try to fix the two hinges to be able to open; will be very difficult to fix the hinges to the threshold ......... In the photos the window is stuck

I have finished the nailing of the transom and I banded the inner part of the time of transom

Little progress; I completed the bandage transom: I have yet rifinirne contours which are abundant:

I started working on the transom, probably the less successful because of some asymmetry that I hope, completing the work, it is not too obvious.
Meanwhile, I trimmed the excesses of strakes:
I built the two stretchers of the transom:
And the crowning that supports these stretchers:
From this picture I get the impression that the courses tend to rise slightly to the left, although it seems not live; mah!

I fixed the four dolphins:

I cut the excess
The final result; I'll probably still reduce thickness because it seems a bit 'too much, but I'll do it later, when I finish the walled inside starboard and adjusted the length of the lead lining.

Before fixing the dolphins I believe I must cover the hawse pipes with lead foil.
For this, I thought of using the commonest fishing sinkers, long enough and suitably machined on a lathe to obtain a kind of tube:
Reached the diameter must have stuck in power, tapping it with a hammer. the tube in hawses

I finally finished the long process of nailing the last strakes, and having finely sanded the entire surface of the hull with sandpaper gradually more and more fine (220, 400, 600), here is how it looks:

Assembly of the spur of the bow:
The gunwale, boxwood, is composed of two superimposed layers and working was performed with a micro-cutter to the microscope;

While I carry on the long job of nailing the last strakes, I proceeded to make holes of hawses: their axis is parallel to the keel and have a slight downward inclination, to favor maneuvers hawsers:
I also started the construction of the spur; To give more strength to the union between ebony and peer I thought to use a plug interlocking between the two species: -

After removing all the nails with the card I started to make a first rough finish with 120 sandpaper to remove excess glue and smoothing the side.
There is still a lot of work, especially in the critical points of the curves more, also I have yet to finish the nailing in the last strakes, remained suspended:
