Keel Shims And Planning to Plan

I cut the keel cut outs too deep in the bulkheads, I did not account for having to have keel material available to overlap with the garboards. I epoxied, and polymer brad nailed shims to bring the keel to where I can get the garboards installed, and have the keel lie fair. Not much work, but still costs a day to let the epoxy cure.  He is a picture.

The other thing to report is that I'm closing in on a plan that I feel good about for applying the planking. I will make some sketches and try to articulate the plan in an upcoming post. I think this will be a good thing to do to insure that I understand my own plan.

It's raining pretty steadily now so I won't be doing much cutting. I'll likely just get the keel installed and get back to planking planning.
