Hi All- Thanks for the responses. I guess the solution is to go to ML Condon & have them mill & rip the oak to size. I thought there might be a supplier of ready-made ribs. I also thank Tom for the advice on the deadrise. I will make the cockpit caoming a bit bigger on the long axis to make it easier to get into. This will effect the placement of the 1st masik. I hope this will not cause any problem in the overall boat, but since it doesn't effect the hull, it shouldn't. Thanks! Jack
