: Here is a view of the back half.

Looks great! Be sure to seal the joint at the meeting of the upper and lower bow thoroughly. In the past I've had problems with water intrusion here because I made the cut between the upper and lower bow pieces too small to get in there to examine the joint. Now I like to be able to run a file through there so I can get at the joint to make sure it's sealed properly.

All the best,
Rob
