Well the good news is that the spiling techniques which John recommends using a compass, is much easier done than read. So I was quite pleased with my efforts, although I decided to fair one station mark about 1/8" larger than the mold marks. I'm hoping that this will be a good decision, but since it is the garboard, only the fish will be my critics...

My test attempts at cutting half lap gains....

And again, using chisel and Quangsheng block rebate plane
Dory gains for the transom, using a spoke shave. I've come to really enjoy using the spokeshave. Initially all it would do was scrape and bounce off the wood, now having persevered with it, I can make really nice shavings, and it is a real pleasure to use.
I have opted to have curved planks at the transom rather than notching the transom, so JohnB recommends to make re-leaving cuts on the underside of the end of the plank.
Garboards in place.
A short video on the garboards clamped to the molds and keelson before final attachment:

Close examination will reveal I am using straight slotted screws. This was to avoid a further 4 week delay in sourcing Frearson #10 1" screws. Although JohnB warns of the horrors of using straight slotted heads, in fact they worked out fine and I didn't have any difficulties using an electric screwdriver to send them home.
