Today I installed 5 more strips on each side of the boat. It took about 5 hours to get these on. I nailed them using galvanized two inch nails, occasional expletives, and screwed in the ends. I established that it takes one half hour per strip for each side. Thus it will take December and January to complete this.

A view of the stern strips. Once all the strips are on I will dress this smooth with a belt sander.
