Finished taping the long stringers

A long and boring job out of the way. The long stringers that extend from the transom to the raised foredeck have been glassed in place. Each stringer required a fillet on each side and then two layers of biaxial tape on each side. Hard on the knees. Four stringers, eight fillets, sixteen layers of tape. Should be pretty rugged. Next I will do the front stringers, then the frames and finally the deck. After that I should begin to ejoy the process as it will be much more wood working and much less epoxy.
I really must add some pictures, but have to take them first!
