Here is just a few pic's of moving forward. I have the other stringer cut and now making the cradle system as so once these are set, they will be held in place with weight on top of them to hold them to the hull while setting in the fiberfiller to cure. The hardest part is keeping my 205 lbs out and off the hull bottom so I have to suspend myself with planks that are setting on the chine edge.
I was able to get so close I didn't leave very much space for the fiberfiller but really don't need it. I used the power plane to get it even closer when I had to change the degrees.
Once all of these are in place, they will be covered with the stitched roving so the stringers are pretty much nothing other than something to hold the stitched roving in place until its cured. I wanted them to be a little wider than the 1/2" stringers that were in it so this is white cedar that is 1".
I will keep plugging away at it.
