Building the transom

The transom is first made up of 2 layers of 12mm plywood, shown below being glued.

Then an Iroko capping piece is glued on top. This part will be visible. You can see the cutout for the tiller.

And below, ready for fixing to the longitudinals at the stern. At a later stage, the outer face of the transom will have a layer of Iroko added.
