Thanks Tom,

I have not cut the sections yet, so I will transfer the new ones. I use a CAD program to plot the sections, then paste the printouts to the ply, cut & sand, so it's fairly quick.

The 32.5" coaming is fine. This site between which 2 sections?

Cheers,

Rich

: There are now 8 sections with "0" being a 9th optional section as
: explained at the bottom of the offsets page. I'm not sure I still have the
: older 7 section offset numbers or 7 section spacing any longer. If you have
: the 7 section spacing numbers, you will be ok as is, if not, and you haven't
: cut out the plywood sections yet, I suggest redoing the offsets to paper and
: making an 8 section boat.

: How much larger ? Forward only as the back of coaming is where it should be
: for balance. If only an inch or two larger, maybe it will be ok. ...however,
: if you move the section forward, you run the risk of changing the hull shape,
: and causing a misalignment of the stringers during construction.

: The 8 section boat has a 32.5" coaming. Contact me my email and I will
: create
: new front of coaming section offsets based on your required coaming size. I
: will also check to see if I still have the original numbers for a 7 section
: boat.

: Aren't we all
