Put some glass on the end of the oar blades. Also sanded them to 220grit and cleaned up the pencil marks and black marks from car rack.
Sanded and epoxied the blocks for the southco latches. These will provide a catch ledge for the latches.
Glued the scarf for the inner gunwales. Most of the time was spent rearranging the shop to make space for them.
The shop was a bit cold so I heated up the scarf ends for a couple hours with an electric heater. Then applied plain epoxy to the joint. Then laid the glue.
Also, went back into the hatches and sanded some flaws and put a second coat of hardened polyurethane down.
be very careful putting the inner gunwale pieces in. there is a ton of tension on them and the scarf joint on one of mine failed the first attempt at a dryfit. stressed me out a bit but got it all worked out.
