I forgot to take any pictures of the building of the decks. I wanted to do something a little fun/different so I got my hands on a piece of Tiger Maple. I put a strip of walnut in the middle, and glued it together. Im hoping that it looks really cool once I get the resin and varnish on it.
The gunnels are kind of a 2 person job as well. I find it much easier to bend/hold the gunnels in place while someone else screws them in. Im sure I will find myself doing some of this alone...but oh well. I am screwing the gunnels on with 1 inch brass screws. I am counter-sinking them so that they are flush, and then putting in 1 screw that lines up with the center of each 4" spacer block.
Next up....seats, thwarts, and yokes!
