The Hull is filled in and Staples have been removed

Well it has been a bit of a struggle getting the strips to round the stem forms.  I was forced to use a old style coping saw to get under the strips and cut off a part of the stem form to get the strips to sit better,  It worked better, but I was left with a small indentation towards the stern, but a little fill, sanding, and if needed a little cheating with some extra fiberglass cloth will deal with that. The staples are removed and now I have to scrap off some excess glue before I begin sanding.  Pictures below give some indication of the canoe shape in its rough form.
