Just a quick update. We've started scarphing in mast sections prior to assembly. Here we are matching the curves.



Now we're checking the joint lines.



A ton of work to get dissimilar pieces to match up before we make the round-over cut. We have three spray coats on her since the first blocking now and she's starting to shine. Only two more to go before the final blocking to remove any grain dips and level the surface and then two to three more spray coats.

Here's a couple showing the sides of the hull without flash.

Portside forward



Portside aft



Starboard forward



Starboard aft



Two photos of the same spot aft both with and without flash.



and



A little reflection test on the aft toe/transom rail.



These may be the least shots from this old building since we are moving to a newer, larger building this next week.

I guess that you will have a life long annual job on this boat. How do you keep the lift slings from marring that lovely varnish?
