Trial Fit the Bottom to the Keel





The bottom was fit to the keel and marked for the fasteners that will go through the bottom into the keel stiffeners. The bottom was then taken off, marked, and drilled. Then, the bottom was put back into place on the keel and the fasteners were installed to hold the bottom down tight for the epoxy/wood filler that will be next.
The sides of the keel were sanded enough to take the layer of tape that will be applied once the bottom is epoxied to the keel. I also made sure that the keel stiffeners are level so the bottom will sit up tight against as much of it as possible.
