In Response To: Re: external stempiece (Jay Babina)

the question originally asked (i think) is where to end the top (or end) of the outer layer of wood.

The external stem piece start 'under' the boat somewhere and goes forward (on the bow end) up toward the shear line at the very tip of the boat. On my boat, I continued the decrative wood over the shear seam and on to the deck a little.
