Here is a brief update on the progress made on Tide the Knott. Lance commented working on this part of the bow was the longest and most involved work in the entire restoration project. For my 45th birthday (in two years), we are taking Tide the Knott up the California Coast to the gorgeous Big Sur. I can't wait, and yes, it is so I could do a race, but it's also because the California Coast is breathatkingly beautiful.
Start of rebuild. All rotten wood had to be removed.

These two pictures (above and below) show the
final third layer of plywood installed.
Notice the bow curve and the
angle. This was very
hard to produce. No air or voids can be between the layers.

Dad has some serious patience and DIY talent. Can't wait to see the finished product!
