Rudder Mount Backer and more Teak Work

I finished fabricating, fitting and epoxying in place the new "T" shaped piece of marine plywood to serve as reinforcement/backer for the rudder mount.  I was also able to finish fabricating the teak mounting plates to go under the head sail turning blocks and cleats that will go on the foredeck on either side of the mast.  I coated the plates in epoxy to seal and strengthen and will then finish them in several coats of varnish.  The team thwart and cap to the keel box got their final sanding after several coats of epoxy and and now their fist coat of varnish.  They look beautiful, albeit much darker than I had hoped.  I'll post pictures later.
