Well, Nick provided the dimensions at 10 positions, including the bow and stern, so since I have the particle board laying around I thought I would use it. Its half inch thick so I plan to bevel the edges down narrower so that the panel curves will be less disturbed.

I guess, before I actually cut the panels, I could measure the panel widths at the form locations as a double check, checking the curve of adjacent panels might be tough to do unless I cut the panels and hold them against each other before stitching. Its my first build so it'll be a learning experience. I'm already sort of researching what my next one is going to be. But this should be a good one to get my feet wet with.
