Final Stabilization

 


These photos represent our discussing and solving the problem of how to permanently support the boat so that whatever leaning or weight that is applied to the boat it won't just fall apart.  We cut the frames back at the top to fit a thin plank that runs the distance forward to aft so each frame is supported against the others.  Then as the drawing depicts, we ran another plank from the 10th frame down to the floor on a angle and glued and screwed in down.  Now we can start planking, walking and nailing on the frames without worrying that they could fall over.
