Transom

Trunnels in Frame
Getting the Measurements Correct
Today we had three things going on. One was the making bows. We have 6 more to go before we can set up the shed over the keel. Next was the boat frames. We have about four of them up and ready to go. And the last job was lofting the transom. once the lofting of the transom was done the group went out side and moved some wood to make the transom crown. The measurements were 8ft and 6ft.
    For history today at first 120 people went to the new world. When December came around 70 people left. There were only 50 people by the time the VIRGINIA was built.
    The vocabulary for the day is transom. It means the back of the boat.
