Nice boat you are building! One day I would like to try something so
elegant.

Thanks. Well, it wasn't too difficult. After all, it was our first boat we
built.
I need to update the site, she's already sailing for two years... :-)

The idea with the router is so obvious. I have used the same idea for
straight edges with ply in the past and got great results. I don't know
why I didn't think of using a batten and doing curves the same way. I
also like the jigsaw jig idea.

The jigsaw jig made the job very easy. Once setup, it's just a matter of
tacking the batten in the right shape, run the jigsaw, run the router and 10
minutes later you have perfectly cut strake which looks like it's been
laser-cur. But indeed, the obvious solutions often aren't so obvious.. :-)

Thanks for this tips.

My pleasure!
