Installed the keel and the stem.I used mahoga`y because the basswood kept splitting.I had to putty the gaps and drilled the mast holes and constructed the bowsprit and jibbom.As is my normal prsctice,I had to use heavy plastic for the doublingsvbecause the wood kept spltting when i attempted to drill the holes so close together.

Thanks!I am hoping to motorize it so that the side paddles rotate. THAT WOULD BE COOL,,!

 

That would be very cool!  Are you going to scratch build the deck-house structures so there is room for battery and motor?
