Guillemot Kayak, Stripping the Hull Part 2
I stripped the hull in about one week.

I cut out a consistent width gap and added strips to fill the gap.  A strip of pine filled the gap.  I must have not taken a picture of the completed section at this stage. This is a picture of bow prior to cutting along the shear.  The bow strips have been trimmed even with the stem.

I added a thin strip of pine and a square edged strip of western red cedar to complete the stripping of the hull.
Here's a picture after cutting the bow along the shear.
