The plank is now dry fitted and the work on the stringer is underway

The plank is now dry fitted and is getting its  first coat of primer before getting fitted in the bottom.

Then it will be the turn of the stringer to get fitted and I have made the joint 

Starting to cut the second half of the joint for the bilge stringer and then it can be fitted after the plank is fitted and nailed in position 

One cabin side all sanded back and now a start as been made on the other cabin side

It is coming up well and once finished it will look as good as when it was first built  45 years ago.
