A little more progress tonight

Sanded back the screw heads on the sheer on the other side.

Trimmed the end of the chine flush with the transom on the other side.

Filed the chine down at another couple of frames. At about frame 6, the screw securing the chine was in the way so I had to remove it, and of course it sheared off. I'll put another screw in after I have finished fairing. I'll look at a different way of dealing with this problem on the next frame I have an issue with.

Made a filler piece to raise the surface of frame 1 up so that it can be faired properly. Just needs to be glued on.

Revisited the extra piece I glued onto the chine. The idea was right I just didn't carry it far enough forward so I have made another piece to glue on as well and then I should have enough to fair back so you will never know. Again just needs glueing on.
