Gunwale fitting preparation

I don't know why but I'm a bit nervous about fitting the in/outwales. Anyway this evening my neighbour is giving me a hand to fit the inwales so I've spent some time marking out and drilling/ countersinking the hull on the outside. This will enable me to clamp and screw the inwale in position along the length then once I'm happy I'll remove it and glue it in place then reclamp.

Once this is done the outwale is fitted which will cover up the holes/ screw heads.
