This is a photo of the forms on the strongback for my Guillemot-L. You'll notice my copy of Nick's book, which was a great help. I ripped the strips from WRC and Aspen and stacked them below (covered with newspapers). In the background is my S&G Arctic Tern, named Tippy, built in 2001. I named it after its maiden paddle. This photo was taken months ago and I have completed the boat. It took me about 8 months to complete the Guillemot and I think I read the board every night to get building tips. I was amazed at how many builders were at the same stage and having the same problems and questions as me. Now that it's finished I'll post a photo of the completed boat. It came out better than I ever expected. Thanks to everyone on the board for your help.

Regards,
