Not feeling as confident as I want to be so things are going a little slower here is some weekend progress with planking that’s not as tight as I wish and the bow roughly done before sanding. For my first time doing this I give myself a b. And I give myself a d for the shipwreck in a bottle lol

It is a well worn path we've all walked... and some still are ( like myself).

 

As George Bernard Shaw said:

A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.

 

Keeping moving forward. You will get better at every challenge.

Slowly going at it picked up a dremel to help and don’t know why I had not got one before. Almost done with the hull planking and will do some sanding and filling before I start with the resin.  Today I’ll be by a boat shop and plan on picking up some west marine resin and hardener but not sure if I was the slow hardener or the faster

Finally have the bottom almost fully planked just a couple more on the rear but my sniper snapped so I stopped. The dremel made quick work of some trimming and I’ll be filling a bit and thinking of the best way to do so in between some planks that are a bit further apart than I had hoped. 

I was able to pick up epoxy and will be ordering their pumps for proper mixing easy from what I’ve read

 

today I saw three whales 2 orca and I believe a small grey whale as well as a nice little red boat on my trip to breakfast
