Added Photos

I've added some photos of the lofting to a previous post but haven't been able to get much more accomplished. A little work has been done on the keel foil and bulb shapes. I'm planning to use CompuFoil3D to layout the templates.

I did manage to layout the hull bottom and sides and double check the location of the butt joints in relation to the frames and it all looks good. I'm still uncertain about whether to use tape and epoxy or 6 inch ply strips to create the butt joints. I don't want a bunch of extra fairing to do on the hull but I worry the extra material will cause issues while trying to get a fair curve.

My current inclination is towards the ply strips.
