After picking up some wire after work, (18 gauge as described in the instructions is slightly thicker and harder to work with than the wire provided with the kit) it was back to stitching the panels together. Some adjustments to yesterday's work was necessary to eliminate the "bubble" in the side panel seen in yesterday's image. We also needed to do some work with the plane to adjust for a slightly misaligned scarf joint in one of the keel panels. After 2 1/2 hours we have something that looks like it could float some day.Total construction time 9 hours.
