Bow with tabernacle and short sprit. Since the boat will be trailered and I am too long in the tooth to wrestle with a mast, I added the tabernacle. Its section modulus in both the x and y axis is twice that of the mast at the pivot point. Two part poly-urethane paint on the exterior. Interior is paint with Acrylic paint with a fungicide.
Construction is taped seam.
Neither is there room here for all the plywood-related comments, so they'll have to be held over as well.
