About the Banks Dory. One change I made to the plans was to lead the aft strop into the boat rather than have it dragging in the water. I think it has a fairer lead too. Then I see that I failed to leather my oars. Now they are glued in I’ll leave it as is.
 
I ordered a Swampscott Dory kit from Bluejackets a week ago. I got a note saying they had to make more kits and would send a tracking number when they shipped, nothing yet. Another delay thanks to the Covid. My M/S Longboat kit has been shipped and is on the way.
