It sounds like you have the shape right. The amount of twist looks intimidating, but the strips should be able to handle it. Try clamping a strip in place to see if it can make the twist. If you think it will be too hard, use a narrower strip and try again.
: I have turned the boat over and have looked at starting the deck. I am
: daunted by the turn from vertical stripping midship to horizontal
: stripping at the ends. I elected to use the rounded version of the G.A.
: and it looks like both sets of end forms are designed for a flat deck and
: the rounded midship area will require that I attach a strip vertically.
: Why didn't we start the first shear strip higher on the midship curve?
: Have I screwed up? Do I put a tapered partial strip along midship to get
: me into the more horizontal part of the midship forms? Desperate in
: Wisconsin. Thanks for anyones advice!
