The Transom Arrives

Hooray the transom has arrived! ( It's seems 'transom' is actually just a fancy name for the back of the boat.) 

So, first we needed to use some more cable ties to attach the seat support bracket to the transom to get a nice curve.

Here it is!

Now we need to attach it to the boat. You guessed it - more cable ties!

Next we tied in the vertical boards of the fore and aft buoyancy tanks (that's boat speak for front and back bits that help the boat float.)

Woohoo - It's actually starting to look like a boat!  

We are going to need to do some gluing next, so dad was trying to find some gloves for me.  I think these ones might be a little big?  What do you think?  Perhaps I'll have to get mum to try and find something a little more kid sized before we move on.
