We're moving right along with the centerline of ORCA and we're also happy to announce that we have picked up the V-Bottom skiff and will be putting her in the water this week for a test run so stay tuned for that!

This week on ORCA, we need to back-up the scarf between our keel and forefoot. To do this we're going to fashion a piece that will span the two other timbers and then be fastened with bronze bolts all the way through to create a strong connection. The rabbit line will then run right through this joint and allow us to set the planking into the keel and forefoot.
