Hi Julie

I think Bill Price did one of the best Hybrid Sheer Clamp jobs I've seen on his Bobby Curtis designed Sea Spirit.

He said it was an accident, but it looks pretty professional to me...
Made deck to hull joining a snap.... perfect fit...

I will be doing this method as well when I build my Merganser this next fall.
