In Response To: I set mine flush with the top (Brian C.)

On the CLC boats I've built you want to keep the sheer clamps flush with the top of the side panels. This is because the bevel you will plane into the tops is a rolling bevel. Amidships, you will be taking wood off the outside edge of the sheer clamp. But at the bow and stern you will be taking material off the inside edge.
