First off, here's our weather this afternoon. It was cloudy and rainy but calm earlier, now Oak Bay looks like this:
Yesterday I got the daggerboards cut out:
 |
| The cardboard was more for spacing than final form. |
 |
| Final form of the bottom came from drawing with a compass on the board. |
They're ⅝" exterior grade ply, good one side. John took one look at the board and said, "That's a skinny ⅝!" And he's right, it's more like 9/16". I'm intending to put a good bit of polyester resin (and 6-oz cloth) on each side, so I'm okay with them being a little "skinny", as now I won't be worried about making the boards too thick to fit in the slots.
