Hi David,

Cool, not seen that before on one of Tom's boats :)

I just cut the frames (screwed one up, darn) and ripped the stringers for one of Tom's Sea Bee's, lots of chines on this thing. Makes my Sea Ranger seem easy.

Gonna be teaching a class building this boat in January, thought I'd better build one myself first.
