A Skiff Wind blows over the water-An account of my winter project to build my first wooden boat, a 13' plywood QT Skiff designed by Jim Michalak. Now that that boat has been launched and is in use, this blog will now also document all of my other boat building and general "MESSING ABOUT IN BOATS"

All the parts are there.
All the structural work is done. The floors ended up to fit best sitting directly on the ribs. Great that's less work than making a thwart or elevating the floors to double as a seat.
All parts assembled!
Now the finish sanding and shaping of things and then masking and paint and varnish.
The floors are from scrap cedar and will be varnished so that sliding fore and aft to balance the boat will be easy
Looking aft. The ribs are a bit clumsy but they do a lot structurally.
