Exciting progress is underway on Bayliss 64. The hull carpentry team has shaped and sanded the stringers and chine, while aft, the prop tunnel coosa has been installed and laminated. On the hull bottom, the first layer of planking is complete, with the second layer in progress.

Once the bottom is fully planked, the team will move forward with planking the rest of the hull working towards an exciting milestone- the whiskey plank!
