Building the strongback. The strongback is a frame on the floor that supports the boat while it's upside down, and it's a way to make sure the boat is all level, even when the floor isn't level.
Once the strongback was all screwed together, we made the legs for the boat. The legs are temporarily attached to the frames. By changing the height of the legs, we were able to level up the boat, and by running a string from the front 2x4 to the back 2x4, we were able to line up all the frames on the spine straight down the centerline.
