I wanted a rowing boat in the style that I remember from my childhood in England and eventually decided to build one myself. After a lot of reading and web searching I chose an Iain Oughtred design, the Acorn 15. For a description of the Acorn 15 click here.

Day 6 - Set up the moulds on the strongback

Here are the moulds fixed to the strongback. It is beginning to look like there is a boat somewhere in my shed! The mould still need some bracing particularly at the stem and stern where there will be considerable load on them when the planks are being fitted in place.
