Moving again

Today began with finishing the clamp attachment to the stem. Left the glue to sent and went out to help get Svīre out of the water as the sailing season is almost over for this year. Then moved on with cleaning up the shop, removing legs from my boat setup, packing all the tools in boxes. With some help I got the boat out of the shop, fixed on the roof of the car and eventually hauled everything out to the new home in Spilve.

Clamps et al

Now that chines are attached, I am busy attachin the clamps to have the shape whole and rigid for transportation as I plan to relocate from the premises of Latvia Yacht Club on Lielupe to my hobby-workplace at Spilve aerodrome.
Starboard clamp is almost there, except the stem attachment, port clamp is glued to the transom and the next 2 frames so far. Last night I also glued doublers to some of the frames to have extra glueing area for planking.
