I started this blog when I was restoring a 1917 Kennebec canoe. Now I have added to my boat building adventures, and built a kayak. I also have pages about birds and astronomy.

Finishing deck assembly

Day 5 had a variety of tasks getting ready for ribs tomorrow.  The rest of the frame to gunwale lashing was completed, the first coat of tung oil finish was applied, the stringers were prepared, and the pulley was put in.

The stringers were made from square stock run two passes through a shaper to make a round (to the left of the frame).

This pulley will have a rope installed so you can pull your baggage or flotation bag up into the bow.
