Screwing together what is left of the broken and rotten port side frame

Screwing together the broken parts into something that looks like the frame and its shape.


The two first parts of the four parts that make up this frame.



The frame now looking more like it should so we can take a pattern off this to make the new four parts of this frame.


This shows the small twist the frame had when it was originally made up and fitted to the boat.


Now it is time to put in the boat and see how far out of the shape this and the hull are and then make up the new frame with the correct shape and once this is made and fitted the ribs will be steamed in position and then we can move on to the rest of the hull and ort out any problem the hull as.
