Almost ready to be wrapped in carbon fiber

It may not look like it from this angle but the keel now has nearly a perfect NACA 0012 shape.  I just need to fill in a few divots and it will be ready to be wrapped in 11oz carbon fiber cloth.  I figure that with a mahogany core, the unidirectional CF on the sides and the outer wrapping with biax cloth, this should be a very stiff keel.  


After wrapping with cloth, I'm going to get started on shaping the plug for the keel bulb.
