: I am building a Sea Bee 13 from the Yostwerks site. I have cut out
: all of the station molds, and have a question about station no.
: 3. Has anyone built this model, and if so, can you tell me if
: section 13 is suppose to come to a peak or have a flat area on
: the top. The flat area makes sense as a place to secure the
: coming, but the deck ridge doesn't appear to fit correctly from
: section 1 and 2. If I'm looking at it correctly there would be a
: bend in the deck ridge the way I have the sections cut out. The
: offset table has HB at 0.20 feet and HAB at .915 feet. To me
: this means that the top would be approximately 0.40 feet flat,
: but I am be misinterpretting it.

: Any insight you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

: Thanks

The class I teach built a Sea Bee last year. The foredeck (in front of the cockpit) is peaked all the way to the bow, the stern deck is flat or nearly flat.
