Soaking ribs - clinker built life boat

Peter is building a lifeboat for the paddle steamer "Skibladner".
The ribs of oak were soaked at 15m over the weekend, and then steamed and clinkered on with copper rivets.

Beautiful work. I like that salt water soak -- It's a good preservative and the 15m makes for deep penetration. Gorgeous assembly here.
