Bow decking . . . GONE!

99% of the screws came out in near perfect condition! If one re-used, how old will the boat be or will the life expectancy be limited?







Galley (starboard)

Completed!



Galley (port)

Port side of the galley is getting ripped out. Just the ceiling left to do.



I now have a portable ice chest to bring to the beach.

White Oak Timber




This is the biggest white oak tree I could find on the property. It dressed out to be 31' long and came in with a 7' circumference at the base. It is pretty darn straight. I have hopes that it will make a fine keel timber. If not, at least the deadwood and floors and miscellaneous parts.
I continue with taking this boat apart.
