Gluing the strips

Gluing the Mahogany strips. Not as easy as Cedar but still not very difficult to do.

The first strip

The Transom is finished and ready to install onto the forms. It does not seem very heavy at all but I know that it weighs more than Okoume plywood.

The first strip is clamped to each form and then glued to the transom and the Bow.

The mahogany mills very nice but the strips are brittle and do not bend very easy like the cedar does.
