Started the Squirt a few months ago but wasnt able to work on it much until a few weeks ago here is where im at. Framing is done except for a wedge ill have to put on the chines in the front because i didnt put enough twist in them.

Are you building the squirt at the same time as the Albury Skiff?

Oh no way brother. The Squirt is a first build follwed by the Albury. I don't have the room for both at once, and even if I did there is no way I could concentrate on one then switch gears and move to the other. I do that enough at work without having to do it at home too.

well so much for the late spring deadline funny how life seems to get in the way of shop time and boat building but I have been able to make some more progress on the Squirt the last couple of weeks.
