Inching closer to getting the 3/8" inch side panels bent onto the form, and then attached to the fiberglass shoe.
Come-along winch on top and boat strap rachet below help suck the side panels tight to form (and to the fiberglass shoe) in the middle.

fwiw...for any new readers what I'm building above is an experiment. I think it will make a good boat but I'll never build this way again. it is too much unnecessary work. when you get an idea there is only one way to find out. And I found out. Ah well. It will be a good boat.
