Whirlwind II - Part Three - Deck, Coaming and Details

[@bradcarpenter1761]

There is absolutely nothing prettier than a Gil Smith transom! Nicely done. My neighbor in Sayville, LI, NY had one of the last Gil Smith boats built in the early 30s, a 30fter, that I watched him singlehandedly restore and occasionally served as his gopher as a grade schooler in the mid-60s. It was simply gorgeous - unfortunately he sold it in the early 70s to someone who didn’t know how to take care of it and it was gone by 1975.

One of the most elegant hulls I have ever seen.

I’ve seen a lot of boat build video’s, but this is by far one of my favorite..

Very good job!!!

Beautiful! Was the fiberglass applied to just the outside? Why not the inside? Wouldn't this cause the fiberglass to peal away over time? Thanks.

Wow. I'm about to start building a Somes Sound 12 1/2, but instead of lapstrake, I'm going to strip plank it, and now that I see your deck... you've raised the bar, and it's beautiful. What kind of timber are you using for the deck and for the coaming?

Awesome. Thank you...
