We have boat parts!

 

Here we have the parts for the Fisher10. Top: the bottom panels.   Middle: the side panels and   Bottom: the transom.

 

 

 

Another view of the parts. Notice the curve in the side panels. These smooth out when attached at the correct angle.

 

 

I threw in this shot to show the curve in the bow on the bottom pieces. this gives a little belly or keel advance (per Carene50) to the bottom of the stem. It puts a little curve to the bottom where it joins the stem.

 

 

The cement blocks are clamping the butt joints. Used PL for the joints. The block on the right is over the butt joint which is under the other panel. I had to do it this way because of the available space, which is at a premium. The same thing was done with the side panels, which you can see on the floor of the garage. Many thanks to my friend Tony (who happens to be my boss too) for letting me use his garage to build in.
