Hey guys,
Today I fevereshly lashed/glued all my offsets checking level on gunwales (side to side) andvertically (top to bottom). Did all and
failed to realize #4 (of 6 in a seatour) was glued/lashed at an angle (strboard side is close to 1/4" fwd of the
portside (or viceversa). Aaanyway, what to do?
A. Heat gun the titebond 3 and redo?
B. Cut it out and make the offset anew leaving all others untouched?
C. Leave it and see what happens w/ performance?

Thanks for ANY advice... I was thinking c cause I am out of budget
but it bugs me!!!
