Dec 8,
November was a slow month for the boat for time and financial reasons. I've switched tacks a bit and started fitting the deck. I am only fitting pieces at this time since I'll need to take some of it back up for access.

| Fitting the port bow deck in two pieces. |

| This is the starboard bow deck piece showing the bevel cut for the deck. I set the skill saw to the shallowest angle and make the cut. I then use the "T" bevel to measure the angle every 12". I can then mark the difference in the cut angle and measured angle on the plywood and use a hand plane to steepen the bevel so it fits. It usually takes a bit of iteration to make it fit tight. |

| It is slow going. Measure, cut, fit, remeasure, cut fit... |
