A rough approximation of the bottom. A nice scarfed joint (where the pieces of plywood come together). Scarfing is fun - more to come in July.
Cutting out the hole for the centerboard. This was sort of tricky to figure out exactly where to put since we couldn't just go underneath the boat and draw lines around the edges of the case. We were careful to cut inside the lines and then just had to go back many times to slowly widen the hole until it fit snugly onto the centerboard case.
Once we got the centerboard hole cut and fit, then it was time to shape the bottom and attach it!
