Chine is fixed

Well my fix for the over twisted chine worked beautifully.  I took to the glued on spacer with a power plane and then the belt sander and it came out much better than I had thought I was capable.

Also scarfed another couple of battens together.

I have also applied the same fix to the chine on the other side, although it wasn't nearly as bad.

I wish I had taken a before and after photo.  I can take an after photo but its a bit pointless.

I am hoping to next weekend push through and get all of the bottom battens glued and screwed.  I have just looked at my schedule I published in Jauary, and find I'm starting to slip behind.  I am supposed to be finished the battens by the end of July.

I'll be lucky to finish the bottom battens by the end of July, and I still have the side fairing / battens to do.
