: I was going to build a Yost but found the rib bending process fun and easy.
: What do you think about setting up forms with the Yost stations(since I
: already have them) and using them as a guide for the ribs?

I think you'd have to recut the forms to do that as you'd end up with an over sized boat otherwise, unless I'm reading this wrong (which is entirely possible). I'd just build the Yost boat then build a traditional one later. Can't have too many :)
