Skin-on-Frame: Curlew II is skinned *Pic*

Curlew II is skinned finally! Glad to get this one to this point. I used a loose weave polyester from George Dyson. That was a new experience. I learned a lot working with it and I was amazed watching the wrinkles just shrink out! You have to sew this stuff on so loose it looks baggy on the boat. I was concerned about a couple of places and thought I might have left them too loose, but it looks great now.

Tomorrow I start coating it. Tonight I rest.
