On the molds!
A big step for me today. I finally got the keel of the small boat I’ve been building (Paul Gartside’s number 130 clinker dinghy that I wrote about earlier. I’ve been stalled for a while - it’s summer and I’ve been spending a lot of time kayaking instead of in the shop. But today I gave it a push, did the much-awaited shop cleaning, and got the molds up. I started fairing them as well, but that will take me a while longer to finish.

Sorry to take so long to get back to you - I lost your post in my monstrous spam-pile; I can’t believe how many poker-bots there are.
I don’t know about #115, but I will say that Paul has been very supportive and approachable; I wouldn’t hesitate to ask your question directly to him - he can give you a pretty good idea of the work involved.
