Dec 8. Taping the Top of Outside Seams

You can't flip the boat over until the shape is completely stabilized by the seats and the deck. To help the seams hang tough that whole time, we tape the upper part of the outer seams. 

Here is the shaped and taped stem. I think it's a bit sharp but we'll see how well it holds up. 

Here's a feeble attempt to show the pretty shape, but since I can't get more than 2 feet from the boat due to the tiny size of the shop, this is the best I can do. 

Ditto. Fish eye. Bad perspective. Yada.
