Designed by Joel White and built by Jimmy D. Steele, the Jericho Bay Lobster Skiff is a scaled-down version of the classic Maine lobster boat hull. Author-boatbuilder Tom Hill adapted the design, originally meant for plank on-frame construction, for strip-planking in the winter of 2008-09. In Part One of building the Jericho Bay Lobster Skiff, Tom described the process of measuring this "little gem of a skiff," and proceeded to make molds, set up a building jig, and plank the boat. Here, he describes the completion of the project — the fiberglassing and fitting out.
