Correction on the new Penn Yan

The new addition is a 1946 Penn Yan Aristocrat.  The decks and sides (above the spray rails) are mahogany.  The confusion came from some misinformation early on but has been cleared up with some help from the Penn Yan owners assoc.   The hull and decks seem to be in very good restorable condition but will have to wait til spring or summer to get into it.

The following pictures show the added frames between C and D and between D and E.  This allowed me to lay the sole at right angles to the stringers and making it so all edges of the plywood are on frames or cleats.  The waste will make the consoles.  Frame C becomes the bulkhead separating the cabin from the cockpit.  The opening in frame C will be a bit wider and the top of the opening will be cut out.  The cabin roof will have a hatch at that opening as is typically done to allow easy entrance into the cabin.  Hopefully the following pictures will help in the explanation.
