No big news for the world but some progress for my project.
I designed the "back bottom" of my boat:
After that my friend Wilhelm fabricated some wooden parts for me:
I did some more sanding and painting - instead of "running free" - what ever this means ...
Next weekend Wilhelm will make the trip to Hannover and hand over his present. Hope it will fit.

Rainer, Looks good. Your layout grid is very "raffiniert"

This is Wilhelms sketch made according to my brown-paper layout send by mail:
Today Wilhelm brought the dead wood to my shop. We only had to grind away a little and after that everything fits perfect:
Because I want to apply some glas and epoxyd later, I placed some Abreißgewebe (= tear away fabric ??) on the fresh joint.
Hello Steve, how similar things can look like even with some 1000 miles between!

Jah. Peel-ply in the English, err, American.

Yes, stern tube holes are sort of one-dimensional.

Nice job Rainer . . . . . . . not too many drips on the floor!
Was it a "two pack" ?

Hello Mike,
it is an ordinary single pot paint. It is made for agriculture equipment and construction machinery. Not that shiney like for cars but sturdy and easy to handle.
The stupidity of sanding (180 grid - wet) and painting is going on. All this to make the fish happy, scratch it over the sand and the trailer - bumping it against the mooring
I have planed to stop this after the 3ed layer and flip the boat over afterwards to build the wooden deck...

Wow! Rainer that looks great.
A nice thing about a painted hull, it is easy to repair. The tug gets scratched up, I pull out the paint and brush it over and the scratches disappear.

More grinding - 220 grid - wet - and paint rolling:
