Tracing the frames from the plans to the Plywood



We procured plywood and boards today to get started. The sheet of plywood was 3/8 in. good one side four-ply sheet 4 feet by 8 feet. Cost was $24.25. Marine plywood was special order and was priced at over $100.00. Based on the experience on the first boat that I built, I never felt the need to buy better quality wood since the plywood part never failed due to deterioration or rot.

Schuyler has begun tracing out the frames on the plywood, using some old carbon paper salvaged from discarded office supply forms of several decades ago.
