Ah whats the difference between us??
My friend river left has had her deck camber cut in, river right has the un-cut bulkheads.
Once the camber pattern is on the plywood cut it out and use it to scribe the camber onto the bulkheads or deck beams.

It's hard to get a good perspective from the pictures, but I worry about the size of the rowing well and the height of the stem side hatch arch. Will it be a potential finger-smasher with the oars? Or is there more room in there than I realize?
ReplyDeleteI don't have a lot of wooden boat experience, but I can recall some raft setups where the cooler or box in front of the rower presented as a potential hazard if they sat up too high. Just something to ponder.
Pretty cool toy. Godspeed on the finishing touches. Can't wait to hear how it rows.

I don't think it will be an issue. I have already changed the placement of the bulkheads and made the deck camber less than in the set of drawings I made. I think with the tentitive placement of the oar locks terrible finger death shouldn't be a problem. To be sure I won't know until gunwhales go on and I start playing with oar placements.
