Default RE: Ears Higgins/Schellboot Build

Finally found some spare time and here's how I use them...

Finished with the Keel - Didnt cut notch for the stuffing box because wasnt sure if I'll modify the angle of the shaft. Looking at other's builds of this plan, see people saying the angle is a bit steep plus going to start with direct drive but if motor's running too hot or the run time is way too short then would be swapping for geared drive. If I lower the shaft angle then I'll have more room to install geared drive. (Just covering my bases)
