More construction news and pics

June continues to be hot and we are moving along with construction. The side are coming along. We have tried a couple techniques and have found one that seems to work well. We are looking for added strength so we doubled the side material but instead of doing it in one piece, which was our first attempt, we decided to do inside and outside separately. We also put  laminated 3/4" x  6" strips between the side pieces. Adds a lot of stiffness to the sides.......engineering on the fly!! We may get this finished by the day of the regatta.
