Back in the Shaping Bay.....AT LAST! New Simm-21's

This 7'-2" is Simm-21 #18.  It is getting a light-olive green tint.  The finset, done in solid Hawaiian koa, is shown below it.  Chris Tomlin has a tentative "dibbs" on this one.  If he doesn't pull the trigger, it may come up for sale. 



This is a 5'10 Simm-21, #19,  Moonlight Glassing is doing a kelp-colored tint on it.  I shaped the fin set for it out of marine ply.  (no fin pics.........use your imagination).  This one is for sale,  ready in 3-4 weeks.

 This is a 5'8" Simm-21, #20, Moonlight Glassing is doing a light, gun-metal blue tint on it.  The fin-set for it is shown below.  Wood:  figured zebra wood (zebrano).  This board will be for sale,  ready in 3-4 weeks.
The first photo shows the pencil layout I do on all the Simm-21 models to start the subtle single-inro-double concave bottom.



I'm finally getting started on some more wood boards.  More to come!     Aloha,  JC
