Is better than one spent indoors. Here’s a shot of San Diego bay as we sail on our Rawson 30 after a long week of working on Mahdee.
Well, some of us are happier indoors! Here’s a picture of our kitty, Beamer, who’s crammed himwelf in a cubby on the boat. All the heeling over can’t drag him out of his cubby. We have a little lifevest for Beamer, but he’s never even been on deck. He’s much happier in the nooks and crannies below.
Here’s a couple pictures of the planking. In the first one, you can see that lots of planks have been hung. Some are douglas fir, scarfed into the old douglas fir planks, the others are African Mahogany (Sapele).
In this second picture, you can see an electric hand planer taking off the excess wood on this plank. The boards start as 2″ rough stock thickness and are planed and scrubbed down to a final shape that is slightly curved and 1 3/8″ thickness.

Here’s a link to the web page for the transom reframing project. Enjoy the pictures.
