In this the 29th episode of The Art of Boat Building I work on shaping the deadwood and forefoot for the Haven 12 1/2. The deadwood and the forefoot continue and fill in the shape of the keel. The forefoot is located at the front of the ballast keel and helps complete the shape of the keel into the stem. The deadwood is located aft of the ballast keel and ends with the stern post that is in line with the transom. Two woods are used, white oak for the forefoot and stern post and Douglas fir for the deadwood.
