Timber fastening progressing

We have now got all the new frames/ribs/timbers fastened in place apart from the timber heads which will be done when the new inwales are worked into the boat. When the new timber has had a chance to completely dry they will be give a soaking with wood preservative prior to painting to (hopefully) prolong their life this time.

New timbers fastened. The missing ones are where there are still other repairs required to the skin planking.
