One other point occurs to me - the Guillemot is not the easiest strip
built boat as some strips curve quite sharply towards the ends.
Shortening the design will tighten those curves, making it a little
harder again to build... Your particular method, of reducing the form
spacing more at the ends than at the centre, will accentuate this. As a
first boat built with this method, this may not be what you want :-)
