Lofting

The lofting process started tonight.


Each panel was meticulously marked out using the dimenions given with the plans along 8 'vertical' stations.



A length of box conduit was used to join the marks to make a smooth curved shape, with the to-scale drawings of the bow and stern curves used to finish each end.









We will next cut out the four panels from this first plywood sheet and use it as a template for the remaining sections.
