: Thanks, Nick. I think I have these things figured out now. I sat down last
: night and worked out some math. With the set I bought, I'll need just one
: template for shaping, and a different one for cutting into the deck.

I'm glad to help. Just a note about the templates, if you use the same template to cut the outer shape of the fitting and the hole in the boat, any little irregularities in the template gets cut into both parts so they still match. Using two templates requires slightly more precision, but should still work. Do some test parts on a guinea-pig deck to make sure everything is working as planned.
