I cut out and shaped the small blocks to support the thwarts, and they are now ready to be epoxied to the sides of the hull. Once that is done, I still have the delicate task of screwing the thwarts to the blocks without going through the hull. I also cut out the boards for the stern seat. I was pleased that I was able to do a lot of the work with the band saw this time. I still need to sand and shape the boards but at least I have a better picture how it will go together; I still need to put in the support block for the rear of the seat. The manual says to put the block right under the doubler on the transom, but I wasn't sure if the boards would fit. However, now I can see that they will fit in the space with the support block right under the doubler.

The small blocks to support the thwarts are ready for epoxy--I needed 12 of them; four for each thwart.
