Coamings

Down to the details and they say that's where the devil is!  I decided to use some of the reclaimed yellow pine for the coamings.  The cedar weighed less but I was worried about it being strong enough in an area that might get some abuse.

Forward coaming and mast partner
 I have yet to make the mast step.  The sail rig, if it ever gets put together will be for light use, nothing that is meant to make the boat go screaming along at all, more of a fair wind assist.
aft coaming
 The sculling notch in the stern should be places to one side to be really practical and I might make up another piece to do just that, though the symmetry of the placement in the center is pleasing.
