The Bulkhead Frames and the Transom

Trimming the okoume to size on the bulkhead.


The router's flush cut bit does a fine job of trimming the okoume to match the frame.


You can never have enough clamps!

The Oukoume came in from Edensaw Lumber so Tom was able to attach it to the bulkhead frames and trim it to size on the router. Then, using African mahogany, he started building the transom using lap joints. Next, the transom will be shaped and completed.

Row, row, row your boat...life is but a dream.
