I took off the clamps and got the second layer of the rail ready for the starboard side. I picked up a few more clamps to be sure that we had plenty for this rail because some of the small clamps would not fit the new width of the rail. I also realized that the space is getting tighter and tighter. Each layer of rail adds another inch and there isn't much room to walk around the dory.

I also glued the medium size thwart together. When I took the clamps off the one I did yesterday, I realized the the clamps were so heavy that they pulled up on the thwart and now it has a slight curve. Hopefully I can sand it flat. This time I put blocks on the thwart to keep weight on it to make sure it was flat on the table.
