Richardson Progress










After opening the garboard, Jeff pointed out that 16 of the forward frames were rotted. Since we have the miracle goop (epoxy) frame ends are being scarfed in using a ceiling clamp improvised by JHaroldLLC. The owner of this lovely vessel, Fritz Dietel, has been coming by to work on her also. A curtain was hung around the hull to keep in the moisture supplied by a humidifier. Since it has gotten colder, the heat is on in the shop. Nice for people, not so for wooden boats.
