Blending the shear

For lack of a better term, how does one blend the sheer clamp on a Patuxent between the deckbeam surrounding the cockpit. Getting it correct at the bow was easy, the radius template does not change. But shear around the cockpit needs to change to accomidate the two different radii.

Also on SWIFTWOOD the top of the stern is flat so I'll have to continue this stragety all the way back.

Thanks in advance.
