This came in from a Cape Henry 21 builder in the USA, Fred took delivery of our Cape Henry 21 kit from us a while back, its he that built the boat as a scale model first. The picture shows a very professional looking jig, the panels on the floor will next be laminated and glued in the jig forming the curved transom on the Cape Henry 21 sail boat.

Hello Dudley and Roy: Sawdust flying! =) Tomorrow begins the glue-up.
Dudley I have been campaigning for you out here. Roy the outer Transom ply you selected for me is very beautiful. Regards to Nigel please. 'Hoping you are both healthy and busy. Cheers, Fred
Thanks Fred!
More info then came in and about the materials used to make the transom jig mould from.
Hi Roy: Thanks for the blog post! Maybe photo will help others in this step of build. Check out photo attached: anything look familiar? Lol. Scarfing longitudinals next, then building frame. Pieces ready. 'Will re-open 'build blog' once a bit further along. Cheers, Fred
Roy:
Many thanks for your interest, and posts. I do look forward to sharing the steps ahead in this 'build'. Your Kit's quality is amazing. The cuts are so clean and precise. I like the half-thick tabs. Easy to cut correctly without needing to draw a line first.
Cheers, Fred
Roy

The lable shows that Fred used the packing crate we sent the plys for the Cape Henry 21 kit in, using them a second time and finding more value.
