Wizard Hard Chine Hull Photos
The hard chine Wizard hulls are built using the conventional stringer frame method. Set up on a building frame to ensure the hull stays square it can even be built on rough ground (but undercover is recommended!)
The bulkhead cutouts are made after turning over, otherwise the bulkheads would be too floppy
Once all is square and faired planking is started, beginning with the gunwale/chine topside panel
After planking the hull is sheathed with a light glass/epoxy layer, sanded and painted before turning over
The rest of the build follows the strip cedar boat
Almost finished and ready to fit out and launch
