Here I'm adding a skeg to #thecoracle. It's not a vital addition for a boat of this stature but in this instance serves a number of purposes. - I've used 18mm ply to add a modicum of ballast to the lowest point of the boat which will give a hint more stability. As the client for this boat is a very exacting 4 year old it also allows a very simple rudder for both attachment and at-sea repairs as he's requested. - You can also see the filleting of thickened resin around it which acts as the bond. This is one of the many reasons why building #thecoracle is such a great introduction to the methods you'll need if you want to build an #oceanrowingboat or other grand venture. - I'd like to thank everyone who has followed this venture up to now for their patience as I create the website and initial products. I do have a plan for content which will cover details and techniques like this much more comprehsivly. You'll get to enjoy that soon! - If #thecoracle is of interest to you check out the link in my bio for the relevent pages of the website.
