Cormorant Multi-Paneled deck offsets

I just loaded the offsets for the multi-paneled deck version of the Cormorant 16. This deck is similar to the Pygmy Arctic Tern. I need to note that this version HAS NOT BEEN BUILT. It should, however, go together reasonably well. Use the same building techniques as similar kit boats. I have lowered the shear to accomodate the paneled deck. If you need to do any additional fairing between the two deck panels, you will likely need to add whatever you take off one to the other (I think, like I said, I have not built this version). Yell if you have problems figuring out any bulkheads for any of these, I can probably post some offsets.

Have fun!!
