centerboards.....


After laminating the foam and center stringer of the centerboard blanks, I am now bonding the high density inserts into position.  The boards require a higher density insert along the leading edge where they contact the forward end of the centerboard case as well as a high density block where the attachment point of the retracting line will be. Once this is bonded in place, I get to become an old school board shaper and have fun shaping them like two big long boards.  I'll have to put on some flip flops, bring out the power planer and have fun shaping per Ian Farrier's Profile specifications.
