console and keel...

The console was cobbed together with 1/2" ply scraps and epoxy, then epoxied in place.   The keel I added after the fact, I needed to do this because the bottom was flexing...I simply ground the paint off and laminated two pieces of mahogany to the bottom the finished keel ended up about 1 7/8" x 3" ...helps tracking, beaching is less scary and rolling on and off the trailer is easier
