THANK YOU for posting these. They brought back fond memories of watching a skipjack being rebuilt in St. Michaels, Maryland some years ago. They let me take home a piece of the old keel that was being replaced. I used this piece for a large portion of the build of two skipjack models for a couple friends. Best crab cakes and oysters I ever had were in St. Michaels and Tilghman.

Hej Allen...nice!
I never knew how special these ships and their way of work were. Also..being built keel up first? Fascinating
