Finishing The Knees And Getting Out The Inwhales

This week we're installing the inwhales on our V-Bottom Skiff so we need to finish up our knees to accept them. The laminated knee and top figured knee have already been dry fit but they need to glued or at least clamped up in place. So what we're doing is we're going to mix up and spread our TotalBoat epoxy on the two pieces off the boat, then move them into the boat and pull both layers tight against the transom and side planking before then clamping them together vertically. This allows us to them remove the pieces from the boat so they can dry and then be re-installed as one piece. With our knees in place, it's time to saw our inwhales down to size and get them in the boat.
