In Response To: S&G: CLC Shearwater 17 Build (Gero)

Last night I went out and spent some time trimming epoxy off of one of the joints on the bottom hull section to get a tighter fit. By taking out two of the wires, I was able to get enough separation to do the necessary trimming. Afterwards, it tightened up nicely. I also took some time to further bevel the stern pieces, which also gave a nice, tight joint. Unfortunately, i didn't take the camera out with me, but I'll document the results when I go out tomorrow to set the hull up straight and level for the tacking, which I hope to do on Friday night. Also need to pick up some stretch wrap to reduce the amount of wiring when I put the tacked hull and deck together.
