Transom dory coming along
We are having
some kind of gorgeous finest kind day here in Lunenburg. Sharp warm sun,
crystal blue sky, light north-westerly, sunshine sparkling sunshine out
on the Harbour. The Picton Castle, our neighboring world-voyaging
barque-rigged sailing ship cuts a fine figure against the sky and sea
at a nearby wharf. And our Transom-Dory is almost finished. Jay is planking
up a small fore-deck and the transom is cut out to take a long shaft outboard
motor. This boat has been framed with double the number full grown knee
frames. She should be ready for paint in a couple days. She is going to
be one fine work boat or beachable runabout. Maybe we will just keep her.
