Upside Down

It took three of us to make the flip. I had cut the planks over wide just to make sure and now needed to trim them down. I didn't want to take forever planning these edges, so I decided to borrow a hand saw and set the depth to just cut through the 4mm ply. Kinda scary holding a power handsaw up to the almost finished hull of your boat. After taking a few breaths and squeezing the trigger I had nicely and quickly trimmed the planks down. Then I went to work doing the outer fillets where each plank overlaps. This really cleans up the look of the hull. Next I'll go over and fill all the screw holes with thickened epoxy.
