Bahamas Dinghy Gunwale

 15 Aug 26:

We attached the new gunwale to the Bahamas Dinghy HENNING today, first marked the screw hole with a fender washer spacer.


Drilled a countersunk pilot hole with Fuller combination countersink pilot bit, #6 size.


The DeWALT impact driver was gets the job done with care, the silicon bronze Frearson head fasteners can cam out easily if driven too hard. A brace bit would be better.


Trimmed the ends with a Japanese pull saw.



HENNING is ready to ram other boats now, especially expensive yachts.


Took out the floorboards and thwarts in prep for paint.

Log of HENNING.
