Ok still working on the deck in between all the other things that take up my day!!!   Have completed sanding it nice and flat now for the progression through the different grids, 80, 120,340.

I am deciding what timber to make the  rub rail around the boat out of and its form. I saw a way that I hadn’t seen/ contemplated before which I find rather attractive. Decisions ,decisions :o)Decided to go for the traditional!!! installed ready for sanding. I decided to not put a rub rail along the stern and will put a stainless steel half round beading along.

The timber for the coaming is in the water, Thinking of a jig to get the right bend and twist.
