The quest begins...

The least gratifying (for a woodworker) but likely the most important step to making a very accurate hull is finding lines, and having them altered to the right scale.

One nice byproduct of this step is I begin to learn the hull...the shape. The flow. The feel.  Even Iif I could hand this step off, I doubt I would. The final product would certainly suffer.

The Q32 lines were amazing to work with...

Then it's off to the lumber yard...the material is selected. Choice lengths removed and planed to the proper lift thickness. The water lines are transfered to the lifts.

Then the cuts are made and the lifts glued up.







All the while quality control watches over me...
