I have been visiting "Coronet" periodically to watch her progress. The winter progress seemed much like the winter itself, long and drawn out without much progress. What is evident is the careful planning, the keel and stem are rebated and ready. No small feat, remember everything in this project is really big.
Here are photos side by side from 10 days ago and today.

CORONET
Coronet , began as a vision of Elizabeth Meyer, who should be credited with the restoration of the "J" boat Shamrock and Endeavour as well the institution which is undertaking the restoration. Looking at the hulk, it takes real vision to see the light at the end of the tunnel.It took years to get to this point.
If you are a shipwright, this project is already a dream come true; interesting work, that is liable to last awhile
TJ Perrotti drew the lines based on offsets taken from a model. Apparently he faired both the outside and inside of the frames, which will save a great deal of time on the long run.
