The inner keel or hog as it is sometimes called has been removed so that the outer keel can be removed so the the shaft log can be fitted and the new outer keel can be made and also the inner keel can be remade and fitted.
The aft end of the hog is going to be the largest challenge as it as the larger screws through the hull and also they are badly corroded and will very likely break off while trying to remove them.
The extra rowing position panels which made up part of the gunwale capping as been removed in four positions as they are no longer needed or wanted and the gunwale capping is re-profiled to match the rest of the gunwale capping.
The gunwale capping now re-profiled and the gunwale capping getting its first sanding to get rid of the old paint that was covering the gunwale capping.
The start of the sanding of the gunwale capping just the next 20 plus feet to go.
