Slowly getting back to the boat project. Center thwart is in, seat frames are in.   Sanded everything and 2 coats of varnish on.   Amazing how much surface area all those stringers and ribs add up to.

Steam bent to pieces of ash around the bow stem and stern stem while it was easy to use the boat as a form.

Next thing will be the kevlar roving that gives a lot of diagonal strength, and then the dacron covering.
