Started faring the rubrail out. Got the port side pretty close. Now to do the starboard side. I measured Frome the chine forward and at the top of the rail. Then I measure From the chine up to the bottom of rail..write that measurement and record..so i can transfer the same numbers to the starboard side... as long as the are within 1/8" I'll be happy...

Not much going on except fairing fairing and more fairing

Okay so I do have the starboard side finished , well, to the point of spraying high build or fairing....so now I'm back to the port side to replicate the STB side...I know you don't see both side at the same time. But I like to be withing 1/8 of an inch of each other..the weather Havens been pretty nice this week.. so I. Trying to get this part done asap.. so I can start with the toe rail.and covering boards...

These are the mahogany.boards my cousin let me have...
I ran them through the time saver ...I love this sander, and it takes off 0.020 of material at a time...the boards finished out at 1.566... So there should be enough material to split in half for the coming boards and coming pads..also the console.pod.will mahogany...
