Team Northern Atlantic 2011

I found some wood rot near the bow of my boat beneath the 2nd frame.  In addition, I had rot in parts of the white oak frame that I cut away to fully expose the rot in the hull.  I was surprised to find rot here; I totally expect to find more in the stern near the drain plug, but not here.

Rotted Okoume!

Here’s a picture of most of the soft wood scraped out of the hull exposing one of the layers seemingly untouched by rot in the original okoume plywood hull.
