My scamp
I bought the kit during the pandemic. I’m going to finish in the
summer, I just don’t know which year.
The start of a lazarette
Starting to mock up and build a lazarette in the aft end of the cockpit
This boat now has soul
Cutting and gluing in the cockpit sole and it’s doubler
Bits and bobs
A couple of odd jobs here and there
Seat hatch covers
In preparation for bungies
Seat top hatches
Designing and cutting the hatches into the benches via the seat tops, and my first “disaster”!
Going in circles
Cutting circles, circles for days
Fixing a too-low bulkhead
Some minor odds and ends fixups before I start in on the hatch covers
Fillets
Fillets take a long time to get right
Planking
The boat starts to look like a boat once the hull planks go on
A quick note on the water ballast
Changing up how the doubler works for the bottom valve
Finishing the centerboard pin
Redrilled and got the pin inserted and aligned, also finished final details on the board itself
Nearing the end of cleats
Glassing the footwell, almost ready for garboards
