In Response To: Guillemot frame profiles (Ron Crooks)

I neglected to include the data above the cockpit in the book. I've posted the information at http://www.guillemot-kayaks.com/Book/Erratta.html

: Using Schades book I am drawing the frame sections for the Guillemot but
: can't find the numbers in the table on page 54 which enable me to locate
: the deckline above the cockpit at frames 8,9 and 10. He explains that you
: need to do this in order to remain fair when stripping the hull by making
: the section above the flat cockpit line a removable piece. This makes
: sense but how do I get this shape?
