The strips of wood are to keep the daggerboard from falling thru the
daggerboard well. The holes are for a pin, the notch is to fit into a
receptacle in the well so when the board goes down is slides slightly aft
and the notch goes into a retainer.
This keeps it down and firm.

The plans for the daggerboard show a couple of pieces of wood across
the top with a hole near the front and aniother near the back.
Additionally, there is a smallish forward sloping, rounded "V" shape
area near the front that is cut out.

Does anyone know the purpose of the holes and cut out? Plan doesn't
mention them.
