04 May 26:
This is what we were up to 10 years ago, working on the Mississippi River Skiff BARBASHELA
04 May 16: Skipper taking a break, just finished putting the floorboards back in for some measurements.
Dry fit the sheer clamp and gunwale bow sections. Screwed and tied off the gunwale boards so we don't get a springy surprise.
All the floorboard notches lined up! Starboard gunwale and sheer clamp scarf is done, waiting for epoxy. Port gunwale and sheer clamp forward sections are dry fit.
First fitting of sheer clamps and gunwales. Prebending was key.
FMI: "Barabshela" a Rowboat of Captain Thomas Leathers' Design for Ms. Winnie Davis
To purchase a copy of BARBASHELA's Restoration Report, which includes basic measurement table.
